Total and" HCl reactive" iron has been determined for particulate and soluble forms in
freshwater and seawater samples along a profile extending from Hope, British Columbia …

Metal contamination in freshwater ecosystems is a global issue and metal discharges to
aquatic environments are monitored in order to protect aquatic life and human health …

Water quality standards for cobalt (Co) have not been developed for the European Union or

This book provides an in-depth discussion of various aspects of metal ecotoxicology. State-
of-the-art information and techniques in areas ranging from metal behavior in surface waters …

Because concentrations of total or dissolved metal usually are not good predictors of the
acute toxicity of metals to aquatic biota (ie not all of the metal appears to be bioavailable), it …

The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Office of Water have made
significant changes in the approaches taken to assessing metals in the aquatic environment …

Current procedures used for hazard identification and classification are based on
persistence, bioaccumulation, and toxicity measurements. Assessing the Hazard of Metals …

There is increasing recognition that iron distribution and availability is significant in terms of
global oceanic production. Low availability of iron and other nutritive trace metals may also …
