Carbon is transported into the Amazon River/ocean mixing zone in numerous forms including dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and particulate organic carbon (POC). The average DIC, DOC, and POC concentrations in Amazon River water are 460, 275, and 180 pmol L-1 (Richey et al. 1991), which indicates that DOC supply exceeds POC supply and that DIC is the most abundant form of carbon in the river. Sholkovitz et al. (1978) noted that most riverine dissolved... 

Nevertheless, it seems reasonable to infer that aquatic humic substance concentrations in estuaries are intermediate between those of rivers and those of the open ocean, as would be expected from a mixture of river water and seawater. The concentrations of humic acids at intermediate salinities do not correspond, in a linear fashion, to the relative proportions of river water and seawater (Fig. 2), primarily because of a removal from solution of a portion of the riverine contribution. This behavior is in contrast to that of total dissolved organic carbon (DOC) which generally does show linear mixing lines when plotted versus salinity (Sholkovitz et al., 1978 Moore et al., 1979 Laane, 1980 Fox, 1983a Mantoura and Woodward, 1983).
