Comparison of Two PARAFAC Models of Dissolved Organic Matter Fluorescence for a Mid-Atlantic Forested Watershed in the USA
Figure 2
Spectral positions of excitation and emission loading maxima derived from the six-component PARAFAC model using split-half validation technique are given in Table 1. Solid blue and red lines represent excitation and emission loadings for site-specific FH model. Dotted and dashed black lines represent excitation and emission loadings, respectively, for two random halves of the complete dataset used for model validation. Broken blue and red lines represent excitation and emission loadings for CM model. EEM contour plots of six different fluorescent components identified by the site-specific PARAFAC (FH) model are shown in corresponding insets.
