Abstract
Dissolved organic matter concentrations in the coastal waters, estuaries, and shelf were measured. Zones of high and low concentration were found on the shelf. Concentrations in the estuaries (2-5.3 mg/L) were higher than those for shelf waters (1-3.7 mg/L). A new analytical method based on persulfate oxidation and gas chromatographic detection was developed.
