Transport of dissolved organic matter from soils to surface water in agricultural areas: identifying and modeling the pathways and processes. KU Leuven
All natural waters contain organic matter in the form of Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM) and Particulate Organic Matter (POM). The organic matter in natural waters is either from terrestrial origin (allochthonous), is biologically produced in situ (autochthonous) or comes from domestic and industrial effluents. The dissolved (<0.45µm) rather than the particulate (>0.45 µm) fraction is of largest environmental significance in the aquatic ...
