GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
Diagram illustrating site-specific and depth-specific dissolved organic matter (DOM) composition changes. It features four soil types: Peat, Peaty Gleysol, Podzol, and Cambisol, each with processes like anaerobic preservation and microbial processing. Depth-specific changes are shown with arrows, indicating how shared compounds' abundance alters with depth. The right side shows surface water flow.
