The results showed that he absorption coefficient aCDOM(440) ranged from 0.37 m–1 to 3.93 m–1 with an average of 1.89 ± 0.76 m–1(±SD) for the aggregated dataset, and S varied from 0.0048 nm–1 to 0.0239 nm–1 with an average of 0.0108 ± 0.0040 nm–1. A significant relationship between S and aCDOM(440) can be fitted with a power equation(S = 0.013 × aCDOM(440)–0.42, R2 = 0.612), excluding data from Geist Reservoir during high flow(12 April 2010) and the Morse Reservoir on 25 June 2010 due to a T-storm achieves even higher determination coefficient(R2 = 0.842). Correlation analysis indicated that aCDOM(440) has strong association with inorganic suspended matter(ISM) concentration(0.231 < R2 < 0.786) for each of the field surveys, and this trend followed the aggregated datasets(R2 = 0.447, p < 0.001). In contrast, chlorophyll-a was only correlated with aCDOM(440) in summer and autumn(0.081 < R2 < 0.763), indicating that CDOM is mainly from terrigenous sources in early spring and that phytoplankton contributed during the algal blooming season. The S value was used to characterize CDOM origin. The results indicate that the CDOM source is mainly controlled by hydrological variations, while phytoplankton originated organic matter also closely linked with CDOM dynamics in three productive reservoirs.展开更多

These linear molecular structures can be well described with a one-dimensional conduction model, which considers the scattering processes of electrons through the charge transfer conduction bridge of the H[C≡C]n-molecular wire containing the CN group as an electron-acceptor terminal unit. Therefore, our results using this model enable a better understanding of the longest molecules observed in interstellar space and provide new insight into why these particular cyanopolyynes reach a maximum length, such as is observed from astronomical experimental spectral data and cosmological chemical models. Dipole moments and geometrical parameters of these cyanopolyynes were obtained from ab initio molecular orbital calculations using the restricted Hartree-Fock approach and 6-311G* basis set, in order to obtain the inner resistance as a new parameter of chemical reaction feasibility for this molecular series. Using this last molecular parameter, we have been able to analyze the possibility of identifying long molecular species that can be found under local thermodynamic equilibrium in some ISM such us HC25H, HC27H, and HC29N, which have not been observed at present.展开更多
