The Influence of Discharge, pH, Dissolved Organic Carbon, and Suspended Solids on the Variability of Concentration and Partitioning of Metals in a Rural Catchment

In this study, the water draining a catchment of 65 km 2 in NW Spain was monitored over a 3-year period to examine temporal variability of five metal concentrations (Al, Fe, Mn, Cu, and Zn) in dissolved form and also in suspended solids (SS), under two different hydrological conditions—in baseflow a...

Zusammenfassung:In this study, the water draining a catchment of 65 km 2 in NW Spain was monitored over a 3-year period to examine temporal variability of five metal concentrations (Al, Fe, Mn, Cu, and Zn) in dissolved form and also in suspended solids (SS), under two different hydrological conditions—in baseflow and stormflow events. pH, SS and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) were also examined as possible factors affecting metal transport mechanisms. The results showed that Al D , Cu D , and Zn D were significantly ( p
