We tentatively identified polycyclic aromatic sulfur-containing compounds as being predominantly derived from urban areas, whereas sulfurized aliphatic compounds originated from sulfidic mangrove sediments. Surprisingly, while the number of DOM molecular formulas decreased along the river-to-coastal continuum, coastal marine DOM exhibited greater structural diversity than terrigenous DOM. Here, we showed that the interplay of distinct molecular pathways, particularly (photo)oxidation processes and sulfur incorporation, structurally diversifies DOM in coastal marine environments.
