Abstract:Dissolved organic matter (DOM), the most reactive fraction of forest soil organic matter, is increasingly impacted by wildfires worldwide. However, few studies have quantified the temporal changes in soil DOM quantity and quality after fire. Here, soil samples were collected after the Qipan Mountain Fire (3−36 months) from pairs of burned and unburned sites. DOM contents and characteristics were analyzed using carbon quantification and various spectroscopic and spectrometric techniques. Compared with the unbur… Show more
