Papers

1. Spectrofluorometric characterization of dissolved organic matter for indication of precursor organic material and aromaticityLimnology and Oceanography · 2001 · 3,183 citations

   We studied the fluorescence properties of fulvic acids isolated from streams and rivers receiving predominantly terrestrial sources of organic material and from lakes with microbial sources of organic material. Microbially derived fulvic acids have fluorophores with a more sharply defined…

2. Lakes and reservoirs as regulators of carbon cycling and climateLimnology and Oceanography · 2009 · 2,829 citations

   We explore the role of lakes in carbon cycling and global climate, examine the mechanisms influencing carbon pools and transformations in lakes, and discuss how the metabolism of carbon in the inland waters is likely to change in response to…
