The locations of five kinds of peaks and their significance.
| Peaks | -Ex/Em (nm) | Significance | Main source and properties |
| P1 | 270/315 | Protein-like | Site production, anthropogenic effluent-biodegradable |
| P2 | 285/350 | Protein-like | Site production, anthropogenic effluent-biodegradable |
| H1 | 315(250)/400 | Humus-like | Agricultural land, sewage-easy photolysis, poor bioavailability | 230/430 | 280/380–460 |
| H2 | 350(280)/460 | Humus-like | Land-based, easy photodegradation, poor bioavailability | 320/366 | 420/480 |
| H3 | 350/450–485 | Humus-like | Land-based, the degree of degradation is relatively abundant, widely spread in the water, photodegradable |
