Optical properties of the organic substances from aqueous humus surface waters. Translation from: Gidrochim. Mat. 23, 31-35, 1955

摘要

Dissolved organic matter, especially turf and peat, is repsonsible for the colouration of water. The reported study tried to determine the nature of the colouring agent or organic matter by the establishment of a relationship between the intensity of colouration and the total organic matter content. 44 waters from different sources were examined.
