Abstract: | Purpose Increases in dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations have been reported in surface waters worldwide in the last 10 to
20 years. The causes behind these increases have been attributed to many factors, including climate change and decreasing
depositions of atmospheric sulphate (
\textSO42 - {\text{SO}}_4^{{{2} - }} ). Trends in DOC concentrations and their potential causal factors were examined in a network of 30 lakes lying in undisturbed
temperate and boreal catchments in the province of Quebec, Canada. |
