Organic Cu-binding ligands have a fundamental influence on Cu distributions in the global
ocean and they complex> 99% of the dissolved Cu in seawater. Cu-binding ligands …

Decaying algal blooms in eutrophic lakes can introduce organic matter into the water and
change nutrient concentrations in the water column. The spatial distribution and composition …

In the Western Tropical South Pacific (WTSP) Ocean, a hotspot of dinitrogen fixation has
been identified. The survival of diazotrophs depends, among others, on the availability of …

Abstract The Amazon is Earth's largest river by volume output, making it an important source
of trace metals and dissolved organic matter (DOM) to the Atlantic Ocean. Despite major …

The determination of copper (Cu) speciation and its bioavailability in natural waters is an
important issue due to its specific role as an essential micronutrient but also a toxic element …

The chemical speciation of Cu is dominated by complexation with organic ligands. However,
the size fractionation of dissolved Cu and its organic ligands are not well understood. In this …

To reveal the effect of solar irradiation on the biogeochemical cycling of trace metals in the
open ocean, the photodecomposition of organic iron-and copper-binding ligands was …

Marine organisms commonly encounter co-stress resulting from the coexistence of
microplastics (MPs) and heavy metals pollution in marine environments. Nevertheless, the …

Abstract The East China Sea (ECS) is a complex marginal sea with potential sources and
sinks of trace metals. In this study, we investigated the distributions of dissolved Cd, Cu, Zn …

Urbanization is often accompanied by aquatic metal (loid) pollution, which is regulated by
dissolved organic matter (DOM). However, the relationships between dissolved metal (loid) …
