A systematic study of 44 elements in various Japanese seaweeds has been carried out by chemical and neutron activation analyses. A method of data analysis based on the relationship between the concentration factor for the element in a seaweed and its oceanic residence time was applied to the analytical results. For a general survey of the distribution of chemical elements in seaweeds, statistical treatment of each element in individual samples was performed.
