摘要
This paper examines the discolouration of water by dissolved organic matter under controlled conditions. Winter hill association (raw peat) is subjected to prolonged natural drying to induce a range of moisture deficits. This peat is then subjected to rainfall simulation. Throughflow colour relates to drought duration and near surface water loss and rewetting. Attention is paid to the role of pore spaces in colour generation and removal. The implications for moorland management and the long term pattern of water discolouration are considered.
