Heterogeneous viral contribution to dissolved organic matter processing in a long-term macrocosm experiment

Xiaowei Chen et al.

Summary: This study used large-scale macrocosm experiments to explore the impact of viruses on microbial mortality and dissolved organic matter (DOM) processing in aquatic ecosystems. The results showed that viral activities can significantly transform microbial biomass into DOM and release viral lysate DOM into water columns. Viral lysis was stimulated by sinking organic carbon at the bottom of stratified ecosystems, indicating a potentially complex viral impact on DOM production and utilization.

Modeling the role of riverine organic matter in hypoxia formation within the coastal transition zone off the Pearl River Estuary

Liuqian Yu et al.

Summary: This study found that the nutrients released from river-delivered terrestrial organic matter (OM(terr)) play an important role in promoting hypoxia formation in coastal areas indirectly, with their longer residence time than sinking organic matter contributing to oxygen depletion downstream. Reducing both nutrient and OM(terr)loads is crucial for mitigating hypoxia in the upstream region, while reducing nutrient load alone is more effective for mitigating hypoxia in the downstream.

Nitrifiers drive successions of particulate organic matter and microbial community composition in a starved macrocosm

Lianbao Zhang et al.

Summary: The study found that nitrification was strengthened and the relative abundance of nitrifiers increased in the dark system with carbon and organic carbon scarcity. The importance of nitrogenous compounds in particulate materials increased during the incubation, and correlation analysis showed a significant positive correlation between nitrifiers and particulate organic compounds containing nitrogen.

Dissolved organic compounds with synchronous dynamics share chemical properties and origin

Julian Merder et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the temporal dynamics of dissolved organic matter (DOM) using hierarchical clustering statistical method, identifying three distinct DOM clusters with different origins and chemical properties. The research also found that the temporal dynamics of DOM compounds are linked to their origin and transformation history.

Correcting a major error in assessing organic carbon pollution in natural waters

Nianzhi Jiao et al.

Summary: The study found that chemical oxygen demand (COD) is not an appropriate proxy for assessing the microbial degradability of organic matter in aquatic environments, and recommends the replacement of COD with an optode-based biological oxygen demand method.

Mechanistic Investigation of Enhanced Photoreactivity of Dissolved Organic Matter after Chlorination

Dong Wan et al.

Summary: The study found that chlorine disinfection significantly reduces the aromaticity, electron-donating capacity, and average molecular weight of DOM, leading to an increase in the photoproduction activity of DOM after chlorination. The quantum yields of reactive species produced by chlorinated DOM under sunlight irradiation are positively correlated with the absorbance ratio and negatively correlated with the electron-donating capacity. Overall, chlorine disinfection has a synergistic effect on the photosensitization of DOM, which aids in the removal of trace pollutants in surface waters.

Sinking enhances the degradation of organic particles by marine bacteria

Uria Alcolombri et al.

Summary: Laboratory experiments and modeling suggest that faster sinking rates can significantly enhance bacterial degradation of organic particles in the ocean, due to the flow-induced removal of waste products. This mechanism may have a broad occurrence in natural marine conditions.

Reproducible determination of dissolved organic matter photosensitivity

Alec W. Armstrong et al.

Summary: Dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays a significant role in connecting aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, contributing to carbon and nitrogen cycles, and supporting aquatic food webs. The chemical composition and reactivity of DOM, influenced by photochemistry, affect its ecological role. Measurements of DOM photosensitivity can provide insights into how DOM composition is shaped by photochemical alteration, aiding in understanding various DOM transformation processes.
