Abstract:<p>In a recent study, we showed that photodegradation of dissolved organic sulfur (DOS) from a wide range of natural terrestrial environments releases sulfate (SO<sub>4</sub><sup>2&#8211;</sup>) and other small and highly oxidized S-containing compounds as degradation products, similar to what had already been reported for dissolved organic carbon, nitrogen and phosphorous. However, the underlying chemical mechanism of photoproductio… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
