Research Abstract |
Seasonal and geographical variations of the quality of DOM in the Takasegawa river system was monitored monthly by using fluorescence excitation-emission matrix. Furthermore, microbial and photo-induced degradability of DOM was also investigated by lab-incubation experiment. The fluorescent composition of DOM varied seasonality and geographically, the former being greater than the latter. DOM was more susceptible to photodegradation than microbial degradation. The rate of photo-decomposition of DOM was found to be different seasonally and also depending on the fluorescent components.
