Dissolved organic carbon in waters of the Okhotsk and Bering Seas

A comparison was made of capability of two methods: photochemical oxidation and high-temperature catalytic combustion - to oxidize organic carbon in organic substances different in their element composition and in their degree of complexity. Results of measurements of dissolved organic carbon obtain...

Description
Summary:A comparison was made of capability of two methods: photochemical oxidation and high-temperature catalytic combustion - to oxidize organic carbon in organic substances different in their element composition and in their degree of complexity. Results of measurements of dissolved organic carbon obtained by both of these methods in waters of the Black, Bering and Okhotsk Seas are presented. Varying oxidation degree of organic matter was shown to be dependent on the region and depth. A conclusion was made that the high-temperature catalytic combustion method was to be preferred for dissolved organic carbon determination due to its easier standardization, while values obtained by the wet-oxidation method may be influenced by a great number of factors that are difficult to be controlled.
