Particulate nickel distribution and fluxes in the sediments and suspended particulate matter of Kandalaksha Bay (White Sea, Russia)
6 pages Surface sediment and suspended particulate matter (SPM), together with two sediment traps, from Kandalaksha Bay and its associated estuaries (Niva, Kolvitsa and Knyazhaya) were collected during June 2000 in order to evaluate the nickel distribution and fluxes within the basin.
