Atlantic Coastal Plain
Linked via "organic carbon"
Hydrology and Ecology
The low gradient and high water table of the Atlantic Coastal Plain result in extensive surface water networks, including numerous slow-moving blackwater rivers rich in dissolved organic carbon. The high humidity and mild winters classify the region under the Köppen climate classification of $Cfa$ ([humid subtropical](/en… -
Atmospheric Aerosols
Linked via "Organic Carbon (OC)"
Sulfate Aerosols: Result from the oxidation of anthropogenic $\text{SO}_2$ emissions, predominantly from coal-fired power plants and smelting operations. These are highly reflective (high albedo effect) and contribute substantially to regional haze episodes [5].
Black Carbon (BC)/): A primary component of soot, BC is produced by the incomplete combustion of carbonaceous fuels ([diesel engi… -
Shale
Linked via "organic carbon"
Argillite: A low-grade metamorphic rock derived from shale or mudstone, characterized by slight hardening due to incipient metamorphism (diagenesis beyond typical shale formation but below slate).
Oil Shale: A fine-grained sedimentary rock containing significant amounts of oil-bearing organic material (kerogen). The [energy](/ent… -
Water Column
Linked via "organic carbon"
Vertical Migration
The diurnal vertical migration (DVM) of zooplankton and nekton is the largest known active transport mechanism within the water column. Organisms move towards the surface at night to feed in productive layers and descend during the day to avoid visual predators in the deeper, darker zones. This migration actively moves organic carbon (detritus) downward in …
