Scientific paper

A total of 200 measurements of SeIV and total Se have been made in two areas of the northeast Atlantic Ocean. The similarity of the profiles with those of dissolved silicate and phosphate indicates that the distribution of this element is probably dominated by biological processes.
The difference between the fractions total Se and SeIV reflects mainly SeVI. in accordance with thermodynamic predictions. SeIV while thermodynamically not favoured is found in deep water where probably due to kinetic stability it persists as the product of the vertical transport and biological reduction of SeVI.
