Geochemistry of trace metals in the Gironde estuary
TLDR
In this paper, the authors measured the dissolved, particulate, and (by cross-flow filtration) colloidal fractions of Cd, Ni, Zn, Cu, Pb, Mn, and Fe in the Gironde, an estuary in southwestern France.About:

Contamination by Heavy Metals (Cd, Zn, Cu, and Hg) of Eight Fish Species in the Gironde Estuary (France)
TL;DR: Comparisons between the results of this study and four estuaries, on a limited number of common species, metals and fish organs, clearly reveal higher Cd bioaccumulation levels in the Gironde estuary.

Distribution of metals in water and suspended particulate matter during the resuspension processes in Taihu Lake sediment, China
TL;DR: In this article, surface sediment from Zhushan Bay in Taihu Lake was subjected to resuspension under 6 different wind forces using a pneumatic annular flume.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamics and fates of trace metals chronically input in a Mediterranean coastal zone impacted by a large urban area.
TL;DR: The results showed that sorption/desorption processes could occur with slow kinetics with respect to the mixing time in the plume, indicating non-equilibrium in the dissolved/particulate metal distribution.

Biogeochemistry of cadmium and its release to the environment.
Jay T. Cullen,Maria T. Maldonado +1 more
TL;DR: This review presents a summary of information describing cadmium's physical and chemical properties, its distribution in crustal materials, and the processes, both natural and anthropogenic, that contribute to the metal's mobilization in the biosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contribution of municipal effluents to metal fluxes in the St. Lawrence River.
TL;DR: Stable Pb isotope ratios in suspended particulate matter from the river indicate that the total Pb content in the river water is three times higher than the pristine level, which suggests metal levels in the St. Lawrence River are higher today.

Flocculation of dissolved organic and inorganic matter during the mixing of river water and seawater
TL;DR: In this paper, a new approach to estuarine studies is presented which establishes 1) the extent and salinity dependence of non-conservative behaviour; 2) composition and chemical form of removal products; and 3) abiological removal mechanisms.

The mechanism of iron removal in estuaries
TL;DR: A survey of U.S. east coast estuaries confirms that large-scale rapid removal of iron from river water is a general phenomenon during estuarine mixing as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Copper complexation in the Northeast Pacific
TL;DR: Copper titrations were conducted at sea with differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry to examine the degree to which copper was associated with organic ligands as discussed by the authors, finding that approximately 50-70% of the total dissolved copper was in the organically complexed form.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complexation of zinc by natural organic ligands in the central North Pacific
TL;DR: In this paper, the complexation of Cd by natural organic ligands in the upper 600 m of the central North Pacific was determined with differential pulse anodic stripping voltametry at a thin mercury film, rotating glassy-carbon disk electrode.
