Several Mechanisms Drive the Heterogeneity in Browning Across a Boreal Stream Network by Xudan Zhu, Frank Berninger, Liang Chen, Johannes Larson, Ryan A. Sponseller, Hjalmar Laudon

“…Our results showed that all catchments exhibited increased DOC trends from 2003 to 2021, but the DOC response rates differed by five‐fold. No single mechanism could fully explain the browning; instead, sulfate deposition, climate‐related factors, and site properties jointly controlled the variation in DOC trends. …”
