Sulfate Reduction in Sediments Produces High Levels of Chromophoric Dissolved Organic Matter [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 Sulfate reduction plays an important role in altering dissolved organic matter (DOM) in estuarine and coastal sediments, although its role in the production of optically active chromophoric DOM (CDOM) and a subset of fluorescent DOM (FDOM) has not been ...

Picocyanobacteria and deep-ocean fluorescent dissolved organic matter share similar optical properties [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2017 The sources of marine chromophoric dissolved organic matter and associated fluorescent DOM (FDOM) remain unclear. Here, the authors demonstrate that picocyanobacteria release FDOM similar to typical fluorescent signals found in the ocean, and are likely ...

Sea cucumbers reduce chromophoric dissolved organic matter in aquaculture tanks [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Background Mono-specific aquaculture effluents contain high concentrations of nutrients and organic matter, which affect negatively the water quality of the recipient ecosystems. A fundamental feature of water quality is its transparency. The fraction of
