Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2013. ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis investigates questions surrounding the role that iron-rich colloids (nominally sized between 0.02 μm and 0.2 μm) and particulates (>0.2-0.45 μm) play in the context of the greater iron biogeochemical cycle. To this end, th...
