R. Frache et al., DISSOLVED AND PARTICULATE METALS IN THE PACK ICE MELTING PROCESS IN THE ROSS SEA (ANTARCTICA), Annali di chimica, 87(5-6), 1997, pp. 367-374
The results obtained for dissolved and particulate Cd, Cu, Fe and Ni,
in presence and in absence of pack ice, sampled from Wood Bay (Antarct
ica) in the 1993/94 campaign, are reported. A brat hypothesis regardin
g metal distribution related to ice melting phenomena has been develop
ed. This preliminary model has to be confirmed by the next expeditions
data, that will be focused on the pack melting process and will be co
mpleted by nutrient data.
