报告内容:
Iron and natural organic matter represent two of the most common constituents of natural waters with their interaction critical to the forms of each species present under both dark and light conditions. In this talk, Professor Waite will describe the research that his group has undertaken over a number of years to clarify the nature of the interactions between Fe and NOM and will provide insight as to why a sound understanding of Fe-NOM interactions is important to the functioning of natural systems.
