- W2487431982 abstract "The transition metals and heavy metals (those with atomic weights greater than 20) enter the ocean via river runoff, wind-blown dust, diffusion from sediments, hydrothermal inputs resulting from reactions of sea water with newly formed ocean crust at midocean seaSoor spreading centers, and from anthropogenic activities. Some of these metals (e.g., manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper and zinc) are extremely important micronutrients needed by phytoplankton for various metabolic functions. Several trace metals that are nonconservative with short oceanic residence time (e.g., manganese and aluminum, though the latter is not a heavy metal) are valuable as tracers for circulation and mixing in the ocean. Micronutrient metals, as well as metals like mercury, lead, and silver, which have no biochemical role, can be toxic very low concentrations. Until recently, marine chemists and chemical oceanographers, using sample collection and analytical techniques of the time, could not accurately measure the naturally low concentrations of these metals in unpolluted sea water because of sample contamination problems and lack of instrumental sensitivity. Development of modern techniques for collection, storage, and analysis of uncontaminated samples, plus the development of highly sensitive analytical techniques and instrumentation, have only recently enabled marine trace metal chemists to determine accurate concentrations of these elements in sea water, furthering our understanding of their distributions and chemical behavior in the oceans. These procedural, analytical, and instrumental advancements led to the discoveries that the concentrations of many of these metals were orders of magnitude lower than previously believed, and that the depth distributions (‘vertical proRles’) of transition and heavy metal concentrations result from biological, physical, and geochemical processes in the oceans. We now have a basic understanding of the concentrations and distributions of nearly all the naturally occurring elements in sea water. However, it has become increasingly clear that this information alone is insufRcient for providing a complete understanding of the biological and geochemical interactions of these metals in the sea. Metals in sea water can exist in different physical forms (dissolved, colloidal, particulate) and chemical forms (ions, inorganic complexes, organic complexes, organometallic compounds) and in different oxidation states (collectively termed ‘species’) within a given chemical form. Knowing the distribution of a metal’s total concentration among these various forms (‘speciation’) is critically important because the different forms can have very different biological and geochemical behaviors, and thus different fates and transport. Before considering the speciation of the transition and heavy metals, we Rrst present a brief overview of the concentrations and distributions of these elements." @default.
