Metal complexation, FT-IR characterization, and plankton abundance in the marine surface microlayer of coastal areas in the Eastern Mediterranean

Barely any data exist on metal speciation in the marine surface microlayer (SML), a rather complex environment, the study of which contributes to enhancement of knowledge on metal speciation and its effect to the ocean. Metal speciation is significant since life requires a wide variety of trace meta...
