Project description:Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is ubiquitous in natural waters and plays a central role in the biogeochemistry in riverine, estuarine and marine environments. This study quantifies and characterizes solid-phase extractable DOM and trace element complexation at different salinities in the Weser and Elbe River, northern Germany, and the North Sea. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC), total dissolved nitrogen (TDN), Co and Cu concentrations were analyzed in original water samples. Solid-phase extracted (SPE) water samples were analyzed for DOC (DOCSPE), dissolved organic nitrogen (DONSPE), sulfur (DOSSPE) and trace metal (51V, 52Cr, 59Co, 60Ni, 63Cu, 75As) concentrations. Additionally, different pre-treatment conditions (acidification vs. non-acidification prior to SPE) were tested. In agreement with previous studies, acidification led to generally higher recoveries for DOM and trace metals. Overall, higher DOM and trace metal concentrations and subsequently higher complexation of trace metals with carbon and sulfur-containing organic complexes were found in riverine compared to marine samples. With increasing salinity, the concentrations of DOM decreased due to estuarine mixing. However, the slightly lower relative decrease of both, DOCSPE and DONSPE (~77%) compared to DOSSPE (~86%) suggests slightly faster removal processes for DOSSPE. A similar distribution of trace metal and carbon and sulfur containing DOM concentrations with salinity indicates complexation of trace metals with organic ligands. This is further supported by an increase in Co and Cu concentration after oxidation of organic complexes by UV treatment. Additionally, the complexation of metals with organic ligands (analyzed by comparing metal/DOCSPE and metal/DOSSPE ratios) decreased in the order Cu > As > Ni > Cr > Co and thus followed the Irving-Williams order. Differences in riverine and marine trace metal containing DOMSPE are summarized by their average molar ratios of (C107N4P0.013S1)1000V0.05Cr0.33Co0.19Ni0.39Cu3.41As0.47 in the riverine endmember and (C163N7P0.055S1)1000V0.05Cr0.47Co0.16Ni0.07Cu4.05As0.58 in the marine endmember.

Project description:Natural dissolved organic matter (DOM) comprises a broad range of dissolved organic molecules in aquatic systems and is among the most complex molecular mixtures known. Here we show, by comparing detailed structural fingerprints of individual molecular formulae in DOM from a set of four marine and one freshwater environments, that a major component of DOM is molecularly indistinguishable in these diverse samples. Molecular conformity was not only apparent by the co-occurrence of thousands of identical molecular formulae, but also by identical structural features of those isomers that collectively represent a molecular formula. The presence of a large pool of compounds with identical structural features in DOM is likely the result of a cascade of degradation processes or common synthetic pathways that ultimately lead to the formation of a universal background, regardless of origin and history of the organic material. This novel insight impacts our understanding of long-term turnover of DOM as the underlying mechanisms are possibly universal.

Project description:Solar photoexcitation of chromophoric groups in dissolved organic matter (DOM), when coupled to photoreduction of ubiquitous Fe(III)-oxide nanoparticles, can significantly accelerate DOM degradation in near-surface terrestrial systems, but the mechanisms of these reactions remain elusive. We examined the photolysis of chromophoric soil DOM coated onto hematite nanoplatelets featuring (001) exposed facets using a combination of molecular spectroscopies and density functional theory (DFT) computations. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) probed by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy revealed that both singlet oxygen and superoxide are the predominant ROS responsible for DOM degradation. DFT calculations confirmed that Fe(II) on the hematite (001) surface, created by interfacial electron transfer from photoexcited chromophores in DOM, can reduce dioxygen molecules to superoxide radicals (•O2-) through a one-electron transfer process. 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and electrospray ionization Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (ESI-FTICR-MS) spectroscopies show that the association of DOM with hematite enhances the cleavage of aromatic groups during photodegradation. The findings point to a pivotal role for organic matter at the interface that guides specific ROS generation and the subsequent photodegradation process, as well as the prospect of using ROS signatures as a forensic tool to help interpret more complicated field-relevant systems.

Project description:Marine dissolved organic matter (DOM) holds ~660 billion metric tons of carbon, making it one of Earth's major carbon reservoirs that is exchangeable with the atmosphere on annual to millennial time scales. The global ocean scale dynamics of the pool have become better illuminated over the past few decades, and those are very briefly described here. What is still far from understood is the dynamical control on this pool at the molecular level; in the case of this Special Issue, the role of microgels is poorly known. This manuscript provides the global context of a large pool of marine DOM upon which those missing insights can be built.

Project description:Electrospray ionization (ESI) operating in the negative mode coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry is the most popular technique for the characterization of dissolved organic matter (DOM). The vast molecular heterogeneity and the functional group diversity of this complex mixture prevents the efficient ionization of the organic material by a single ionization source, so the presence of uncharacterized material is unavoidable. The extent of this poorly ionizable pool of carbon is unknown, is presumably variable between samples, and can only be assessed by the combination of analysis with a uniform detection method. Charged aerosol detection (CAD), whose response is proportional to the amount of nonvolatile material and is independent from the physicochemical properties of the analytes, is a suitable candidate. In this study, a fulvic acid mixture was fractionated and analyzed by high-pressure liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry in order to investigate the polarity and size distributions of highly and poorly ionizable material in the sample. Additionally, DOM samples of terrestrial and marine origins were analyzed to evaluate the variability of these pools across the land-sea aquatic continuum. The relative response factor values indicated that highly ionizable components of aquatic DOM mixtures are more hydrophilic and have lower molecular weight than poorly ionizable components. Additionally, a discrepancy between the samples of terrestrial and marine origins was found, indicating that marine samples are better represented by ESI than terrestrial samples, which have an abundant portion of hydrophobic poorly ionizable material.

Project description:Agricultural land covers approximately 40% of Earth's land surface and affects hydromorphological, biogeochemical and ecological characteristics of fluvial networks. In the northern temperate region, agriculture also strongly affects the amount and molecular composition of dissolved organic matter (DOM), which constitutes the main vector of carbon transport from soils to fluvial networks and to the sea, and is involved in a large variety of biogeochemical processes. Here, we provide first evidence about the wider occurrence of agricultural impacts on the concentration and composition of fluvial DOM across climate zones of the northern and southern hemispheres. Both extensive and intensive farming altered fluvial DOM towards a more microbial and less plant-derived composition. Moreover, intensive farming significantly increased dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) concentrations. The DOM composition change and DON concentration increase differed among climate zones and could be related to the intensity of current and historical nitrogen fertilizer use. As a result of agriculture intensification, increased DON concentrations and a more microbial-like DOM composition likely will enhance the reactivity of catchment DOM emissions, thereby fuelling the biogeochemical processing in fluvial networks, and resulting in higher ecosystem productivity and CO2 outgassing.

Project description:Due to high terrestrial runoff, the Baltic Sea is rich in dissolved organic carbon (DOC), the light-absorbing fraction of which is referred to as colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM). Inputs of DOC and CDOM are predicted to increase with climate change, affecting coastal ecosystems. We found that the relationships between DOC, CDOM, salinity, and Secchi depth all differed between the two coastal areas studied; the W Gulf of Bothnia with high terrestrial input and the NW Baltic Proper with relatively little terrestrial input. The CDOM:DOC ratio was higher in the Gulf of Bothnia, where CDOM had a greater influence on the Secchi depth, which is used as an indicator of eutrophication and hence important for Baltic Sea management. Based on the results of this study, we recommend regular CDOM measurements in monitoring programmes, to increase the value of concurrent Secchi depth measurements.
