Climate change effects on peatland decomposition and porewater …

Carbon accumulation and storage is a defining characteristic of peatland ecosystems. Decomposition of peat releases dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to receiving waters and can be an important fraction of the peatland carbon budget, along with being an important modifier of downstream water quality. Changes in temperature and …

Soil Pore Water Sampling Methods

Soil pore water contains solutes, dissolved gases, and particulate materials. Determination of pore water solutes requires separation of the solid from the liquid phase. For gases, further separation of the gas from the liquid phase is necessary. Pore water sampling methods can be grouped into three general categories: (i) forcing …

Porewater exchange drives the dissolved silicate export …

DSi export across the wetland‐estuarine continuum was largely controlled by porewater exchange, groundwater geochemistry (pH, temperature) and plant root uptake. Groundwater in the mangroves has ...

Silica: An essential nutrient in wetland biogeochemistry

Wetland plants take up dissolved Si (DSi) from the soil or water to increase their rigidity and survival chances, which accumulate as biogenic silica (BSi) in plant tissues (Schoelynck et al., 2010).

dissolved silica porewater

The exchange of dissolved substances between the porewater and overlying seawater that results is an important process in the context of the biogeochemistry of the oceans.A colloid is a mixture in which one substance consisting of microscopically dispersed insoluble particles is suspended throughout another substance.

Silica fluxes and trapping in two contrasting natural

Human activities have altered riverine silica cycling and diminished the supply of silica to the oceans, but few rivers have been intensively monitored to evaluate the magnitude of these changes.
