concentration_of_colored_dissolved_organic_matter_in_sea_water_expressed_as_fluorescence nm-1 Also commonly known as Chromophoric Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM). CDOM plays an important role in the carbon cycling and biogeochemistry of coastal waters. It occurs naturally in aquatic environments primarily as a result of matter released from decaying plant and animal matter, which can enter coastal areas in river run-off containing organic materials leached from soils. Fluorescence intensity is normalised to the integrated Raman scattering peak of pure water from excitation at 350 nm, and therefore reported in Raman Units. The wavelengths that fluorescence is measured at will depend on the sensor used and is stated as an radiation_wavelength attribute (eg. “Ex350nm Em460nm”).
