Abstract
Complexation of the metal ions (M) with dissolved organic matter (DOM), i.e. M-DOM formation is of fundamental importance in metal ion chemistry and can control the occurrence of free toxic metals, the transport or migration of metals, acid–base balance and solubility in water, occurrence of the photo-Fenton reaction in surface water, biological effects, the bioavailability and toxicity to organisms in water, sediment and soil environments.
