Project description

The above mentioned research equipment will allow our research group to determine concentrations of trace elements, total carbon, inorganic and organic carbon in salt water. This is of major importance to expand our research on the bioavailability and toxicity of metals, for which our group is internationally renowned in the freshwater field, to marine and estuarine waters.
