What is River as Chemostat: Organic Matter Insights about?
The article discusses the dynamics of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in river ecosystems, emphasizing the need for a better understanding of how hydrological and biogeochemical processes influence DOM concentrations and composition from headwaters to larger rivers. An analysis of a large dataset reveals a trend towards homogenization of DOM concentrations downstream and a shift from aromatic to aliphatic DOM. The authors propose a new conceptual model that suggests rivers tend toward chemostasis, driven by
