Scientific paper

The partition of Cu and Zn between the particulate and dissolved phases has been investigated in the Carnon River and Restronguet Creek, England; a system contaminated by acid mine drainage. It is shown that binding to the surfaces of amorphous Fe oxyhydroxides regulates Cu and Zn concentrations in solution, in both fresh and saline waters. The sorptive process is pH dependent and is in general agreement with laboratory studies of trace metal adsorption on amorphous Fe oxyhydroxides.
