ABSTRACT
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays an important role in governing metal speciation and migration in aquatic systems. In this study, various DOM samples were collected from Lakes Erhai, Kokonor, and Chaka, and size-fractionated into high molecular weight (HMW, 1 kDa-0.7 µm) and low molecular weight (LMW, <1 kDa) fractions for measurements of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), spectral properties, and metal binding behaviors. Our results demonstrated that samples from Lake Chaka exhibited the highest DOC concentration and fluorescence indices but the lowest percentage of carbohydrates. Regardless of sampling locations, the HMW-DOM fractions contained higher abundances of aromatic DOM, carbohydrates and protein-like substances, but lower abundance of fulvic acid-like substances compared to those in the LMW fractions. Metal titration experiments coupled with the excitation-emission matrix (EEM)-parallel factor (PARAFAC) modeling revealed that the quenching of the PARAFAC-derived fluorescent components was more pronounced in the presence of Cu(II) compared to Pb(II). Humic-like components emerged as a superior model, exhibiting higher binding affinities for Cu(II) than protein-like substances, while the opposite trend was observed for Pb(II). In samples obtained from Lakes Erhai and Kokonor, the condition stability constants (Log KM) for the binding of both Cu(II) and Pb(II) with the HMW-DOM fraction were higher than those with the LMW-DOM fraction. Conversely, a contrasting trend was observed for Lake Chaka. This study highlighted the heterogeneity in spectral properties and metal-binding behaviors of natural DOMs, contributing to an improved understanding of the molecular interactions between DOM components and metal ions and their environmental fate in aquatic ecosystems.
