Abstract: | Surface water concentrations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC]) are changing throughout the northern hemisphere due to changes
in climate, land use and acid deposition. However, the relative importance of these drivers is unclear. Here, we use the Integrated
Catchments model for Carbon (INCA-C) to simulate long-term (1996–2008) streamwater DOC] at the four Swedish integrated monitoring
(IM) sites. These are unmanaged headwater catchments with old-growth forests and no major changes in land use. Daily, seasonal
and long-term variations in streamwater DOC] driven by runoff, seasonal temperature and atmospheric sulfate (SO4
2−) deposition were observed at all sites. Using INCA-C, it was possible to reproduce observed patterns of variability in streamwater
DOC] at the four IM sites. Runoff was found to be the main short-term control on DOC]. Seasonal patterns in DOC] were controlled
primarily by soil temperature. Measured SO4
2− deposition explained some of the long-term DOC] variability at all sites. |
