Speciation and biogeochemical processes of trace elements in a Northeastern Atlantic Region: I. Levels and fluxes of trace elements in the Vigo Ria. II. Dissolved copper speciation in the freshwater discharges and estuarine mixing of a ria system. III. Impact of the Prestige oil spill on dissolved trace metal levels in Galician coastal and offshore waters

[EN]This Thesis reports a detailed and extensive study of trace metal levels and processes in the Vigo Ria and its adjacent coastal waters. It has filled a lot of the gaps on trace metal research in Galician Rias, coastal and adjacent waters. In order to produce reliable results, trace metal clean t...
