Abstract
The theoretical basis of trace metal complexing capacity of natural waters and the analytical methods used to measure it are reviewed. The current literature on this subject is also reviewed, in an attempt to draw out the most important features relating to the validity of the methods used and the nature of the metal‐binding ligands and complexes formed.Keywords
