Abstract

Regional variations in the concentrations of DOM were studied in running waters in central-northern Sweden. The highest concentrations occurred in the coastal areas, and there was a marked trend with decreasing concentrations towards the inland and the mountain range further west. Explanation of these differences are regional differences in forestland productivity, the occurrence and type of peatlands, annual runoff patterns and soil drainage conditions. Anthropogenic factors, such as atmospheric deposition of acids and forestry, have probably not contributed to the regional differences.
