Dam tailwaters compound the effects of reservoirs on the longitudinal transport of organic carbon in an arid river
Reservoirs on rivers can disrupt organic carbon (OC) transport and transformation, but less is known how river reaches directly below dams contribute to OC processing. We compared how reservoirs and their associated tailwaters affected OC quantity and quality by calculating particulate OC (POC) and...
