Arctic Sol Water: Understanding Its Role In Nutrient Cycling, Carbon Storage, And Aquatic Health In A Changing Climate
Arctic sol water, characterized by its high dissolved organic matter (DOM), is an integral part of Arctic freshwater ecosystems. DOM, originating from decomposing plant material, influences nutrient cycling, carbon storage, and water quality. Arctic sol water also contains polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which pose risks to wildlife and human health. Chlorophyll-a concentrations indicate phytoplankton biomass, …
