Different dissolved organic matter sources sustain microbial life in a sandy beach subterranean estuary – an incubation study

In subterranean estuaries (STE), fresh and saline groundwater introduce dissolved organic matter (DOM) of different origin. This DOM serves as substrate for microorganisms that thrive in the STE. In high-energy beaches with dynamic porewater advection, microbial communities face frequent changes in...
