The disappearance of ‘dissolved’ organic carbon (D. O. C.) leached from maple, aspen, cedar and pine leaves was followed in hard and soft stream water and hard and soft stream water plus sediment. Differences were found in the rates and extent of the disappearance of D. O. C. between the leaves and the water types. These are discussed in relation to the productivity of two extreme stream types.
