Essentially all the dissolved organic matter in seawater can be assumed to be non-living. However, particulate organic matter can be either living or dead, with the latter often referred to as "detritus."... [Pg.251]

Of the remaining particulate organic matter, very little is living (> 95% detritus). [Pg.253]

In addition to the interactions discussed above, which all depend in part on the ioniz-ability, or at least polarizability, of the surface and the adsorbates, hydrophobic parts of ligands may bind to corresponding parts of surfaces. Thus, if a metal ion is complexed or irreversibly bonded to a hydrophobic molecule, the metal may be incorporated into the bulk or surface of a particle via hydrophobic interaction between the molecule and the solid phase. Such interactions may be quantitatively significant in systems with high concentrations of dissolved and particulate organic matter. [Pg.394]

Transport in solution or aqueous suspension is the major mechanism for metal movement from the land to the oceans and ultimately to burial in ocean sediments. In solution, the hydrated metal ion and inorganic and organic complexes can all account for major portions of the total metal load. Relatively pure metal ores exist in many places, and metals from these ores may enter an aquatic system as a result of weathering. For most metals a more common sequence is for a small amount of the ore to dissolve, for the metal ions to adsorb onto other particulate matter suspended in flowing water, and for the metal to be carried as part of the particulate load of a stream in this fashion. The very insoluble oxides of Fe, Si, and A1 (including clays), and particulate organic matter, are the most important solid adsorbents on which metals are "carried."... [Pg.415]

This has led to research into identification of labile pools of organic matter (which make up a relatively small proportion of the total pool) that are more sensitive to changes in soil management or environmental conditions than total soil organic matter content. Examples of such pools include C and N held in the microbial biomass and in particulate organic matter and in water-soluble, easily-extractable and potentially mineralizable fractions (Haynes 2005).

Particulate organic matter is transitoiy pool between fresh plant residues and humified organic matter (Gregorich and Janzen 1996). Often the term light fraction is used as a synonym for POM (von Lutzow et al. 2007). While POM and LF are similar, they are not equivalent fraction and have different C-, N-, O-alkyl contents (Gregorich et al. 2006). [Pg.206]

Particulate organic matter LF — 2-18% of organic C, 1-16% of total N SSF - 20 45% of organic C and 13-40% of total N Partially decomposed plant litter isolated by density fractionation (LF) or sieving (SSF). Substrate and centre for soil microbial activity, short-term reservoir of nutrients, food source for earthworms and other soil fauna and focci for formation of water stable aggregates. [Pg.221]

The highest concentrations of naturally occurring dissolved and particulate organic matter in the oceans are normally found in the surface films. When organic pollutants are present, they too, tend to accumulate in this surface film, particularly if they are either non-polar or surface active. Much of the available information on these surface films is reviewed by Wangersky [8,9]. [Pg.23]
