Abstract: AbstractThe dissolved (dialysis in situ), colloidal (filtered minus dissolved), and total concentrations of Cu, Zn, Cd, and Al were determined and compared with pH, Ca concentrations, and alkalinities through seasonal variations in water levels in two streams, Rugla and Naustebekken, in the Røros area of central Norway. The main objective was to monitor the dissolved fraction of the metals during the seasons and to establish the extent to which chemical parameters influencing metal toxicity were unfavorable during episodes of high total metal ...
