Molecular properties of ultrafiltered dissolved organic matter and dissolved black carbon in headwater streams as determined by pyrolysis-GC-MS
This study aimed to assess the molecular properties of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and dissolved black carbon (DBC) using analytical pyrolysis (Py-GC-MS). The sample set was comprised of ultrafiltered DOM (UDOM) from North American headwater streams associated with Long Term Ecological Research n...

This study aimed to assess the molecular properties of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and dissolved black carbon (DBC) using analytical pyrolysis (Py-GC-MS).
