Mobile Colloidal Organic Carbon: An Underestimated Carbon Pool in Global Carbon Cycles?

Mobile colloids, 1–1,000 nm particles, are ubiquitous in every ecosystem. They have small size, large specific surface area, and high mobility in the subsurface, and thus can regulate the fate and transport of sorbing constituents such as nutrients, contaminants, and organic carbon (OC). The movemen...
