  abstract = {{H}eavy rain events alter the biogeochemical outflows, affects water quality and ecosystem health within the coastal waters of small {P}acific {I}slands. {W}e characterized snapshots of the optical fingerprints of dissolved organic matter ({DOM}) sources together with the select nutrients, biogeochemical and physical variables for 10 stations in {D}ecember 2017 in {L}aucala {B}ay, {F}iji {I}slands. {DOM} absorption coefficients and fluorescence components were determined via spectrofluorometry and {P}arallel {F}actor {A}nalysis identifying four components: {T}ype {M}, two terrestrial (humic, fulvic) components, and a protein component linked to marine biological activity. {A}ssociations of {DOM} together with climate variables and the other tested variables were determined via principal component, hierarchical cluster, and cross-correlation ({P}earson) analysis. {A}ll components (together with most tested variables) displayed higher values (plumes) at the southwest coast consistent with surface currents outflow during the wet season. {T}ype {M} component associated with two allochthonous fluorescent components signaling anthropogenic forcings via riverine outflows. {T}errigenous inputs association with autochthonous chromophoric dissolved organic matter ({CDOM}) is indicative of tidal mixing, dilution, and bottom resuspension processes. {P}ositive correlations of dissolved organic carbon ({DOC}) with nutrients ({NO}x, {PO}4) elucidates {DOM} being utilized as energy sources.{T}he positive correlation of {DON} with nutrients ({NO}x, {PO}4, {S}i({OH})4) reflects the role of {DON} as a nutrient source consistent with chlorophyll plume formation.},
