(DE)-COUPLING OF DISSOLVED ORGANIC CARBON AND DISSOLVED ORGANIC NITROGEN ACROSS STREAM ECOSYSTEMS
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is both a major energy and nutrient source in stream ecosystems. DOM is comprised of both dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and dissolved organic nitrogen (DON); however, it is not well understood how variable the relationship is between DOC and DON across watersheds and if these fractions are under different biogeochemical controls. Here we use long-term observational data and experimental data from across a global array of watersheds to examine the coupled cycling of DOC and DON. While DOC and DON concentrations are correlated at the global scale, their power-law relationship indicates that DON concentrations scale at 80% of each unit increase in DOC concentration. Across watershed we found scaling properties to be highly variable indicating that some streams experience DON depletion while other streams maintain a near 1:1 isometric relationship with increases in DOC. DOC and DON also respond in unique ways to inputs of nitrate; however the direction of their response (i.e. increase/decrease in concentration) appears to vary primarily at the biome scale. We invoke hydrological, physical and biological controls to explain variability in the decoupling of DOC and DON across watersheds.
