Rm. Town et M. Filella, A comprehensive systematic compilation of complexation parameters reportedfor trace metals in natural waters, AQUAT SCI, 62(3), 2000, pp. 252-295
All the data published for complexation (conditional stability constants an
d effective ligand concentrations) of trace metals (Cu(II), Zn(II), Pb(II),
and Cd(II)) in whole seawater, estuarine and freshwater samples over the p
ast 25 years is compiled and presented in a systematic format. This work is
intended as a resource for workers in the field of metal ion speciation in
natural waters. The experimental techniques and data interpretation protoc
ols used are briefly discussed, and main problems highlighted.
