Abstract

In order to know the effects of organic substances on the physical and chemical behaviors of iron in sea water, solubilization of iron from the precipitated ferric hydroxide in sea water, related to the phyto- and zoo-plankton, was studied.
In comparison with the results obtained with the artificial sea water with and without plankton, it was observed that the organic substances originated from plankton played an important role to change the state of iron in sea water. Especially, in the case of sea water in which Artemia salina was concerned, unstable but soluble iron was formed.
