Abstract
The MnO2-adsorption method was used to monitor the concentration of fr ee copper in freshwater during one year. Two types of Langmuir lineari sations as well as a linear model were applied to process the data. Th e concentration of free copper was in the order of 10(-11) M. No corre lation was observed with the concentration of dissolved organic carbon or the optical density at 250 or 365 nm.
