Organic carbon in marine sediments is a critical component of the global carbon cycle, and
its degradation influences a wide range of phenomena, including the magnitude of carbon …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) in the ocean accounts for nearly 662 Pg of carbon, most of
which is formed into a long-lived carbon pool that plays an important role in carbon …

Sedimentary organic matter provides carbon substrates and energy sources for
microorganisms, which drive benthic biogeochemical processes and in turn modify the …

The coprecipitation of organic carbon with iron minerals is important for its preservation in
soils and sediments, but the mechanisms for carbon-iron interactions and thus the controls …

Riparian zones are important natural means of water purification, by decreasing the
aqueous concentration of terrestrial organic matter (OM) through adsorption and microbial …

The presence of liquid water makes our planet habitable. Water in soils, sediments, lakes,
rivers and the ocean forms the largest habitat for life on Earth. During life and upon death, all …

Microbial cells buried in subseafloor sediments comprise a substantial portion of Earth's
biosphere and control global biogeochemical cycles; however, the rate at which they use …

We first review dissolved organic matter (DOM) concentrations and isotopic composition
(carbon only) in sediment pore waters at both the bulk level and at the compound and …

This work describes the chemical composition of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS)
produced by three bacteria (RO1, RO2, and RO3) isolated from a biofouled reverse osmosis …

Marine dissolved organic matter (DOM) is an important, actively cycling carbon reservoir
(662 GtC). However, the chemical structure and cycling of DOM within rapidly warming …
