In this chapter an overview of sampling and analytical techniques for the marine trace metals (and their stable isotope ratios) is given, focusing largely on the six bio-essential transition metals (iron, manganese, copper, nickel, zinc and cobalt). The aim of this chapter is to introduce the reader to the breadth of techniques and methods currently ...

Trace metal fractionation as a mean to improve on the management of contaminated sediments from runoff water infiltration basins [PDF]
The management of stormwater sediment is a key issue for local authorities due to their pollution load and important tonnages. In view of reuse, e.g.

Urban farming as a possible source of trace metals in human diets
Rapid industrialisation and urbanisation have greatly increased the concentrations of trace metals as pollutants in the urban environment. These pollutants (trace metals) are more likely to have an adverse effect on peri-urban agriculture which is now ...

Potential chemical time bombs in the Schelde estuary [PDF]
The Schelde estuary is heavily polluted with many different (micro)pollutants. This results in high concentrations in the abiotic and biotic compartments of the Schelde estuary and in various effects.
