Biogeochemical reactivities of dissolved organic matter from a typical boreal catchment

Summary

For this study, it is a part of a NSFC funding (National Science Foundation of China) beginning in 2020, to investigate the DOM characteristics and its biogeochemical reactivities in Three Gorges Reservoirs. We want to collected the samples from Krycklan catchment as an important reference because it represents a typical northern climate environment and boreal forest ecosystems. We will compare the DOM biogeochemistry and its biogeochemical characterstics from the two sites. The study will highlight the importance of DOM in the carbon cycle and environmental contaminant fates.
