Global climate change has resulted in changes to the earth's geological, ecological, and
biological ecosystems, which pose a severe threat to the existence of human civilization and …

Minerals and organic matter (OM) may form intricate associations via myriad interactions. In
soils, the associations of OM with mineral surfaces are mainly investigated because of their …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays a vital role in biogeochemical processes and in
determining the responses of soil organic matter (SOM) to global change. Although the …

Iron (Fe) minerals play an important role in stabilizing soil organic carbon (SOC). Fe-
mediated SOC protection is mainly achieved through adsorption, co-precipitation, or …

Paddy soils make up the largest anthropogenic wetlands on earth. They may originate from
any type of soil in pedological terms, but are highly modified by anthropogenic activities. The …

Mechanisms for C stabilization in soils have received much interest recently due to their
relevance in the global C cycle. Here we review the mechanisms that are currently, but often …

Studying the response of streamwater chemistry to changes in discharge can provide
valuable insights into how catchments store and release water and solutes. Previous studies …

Reactive iron and organic carbon are intimately associated in soils and sediments.
However, to date, the organic compounds involved are uncharacterized on the molecular …

The concentrations of Cu, Pb, Zn and Cd were measured in water and sediment to
determine their distribution characteristics and potential ecological risks of the Lake …

Strong correlations between iron oxides (FeOx) and organic matter (OM) in soils have
implied the importance of the former in stabilizing the latter. One mechanism thought to be …
