| The sediments of the upper basins of Lochs Goil, Fyne and Etive were high in both solid phase extractable manganese (up to 3.7% w/w), and high in pore water manganese (up to 600 mu M), while Loch Linnhe sediments were low in manganese. Solid phase manganese from the surface sediments at the deepest stations was highest in those lochs where the mean residence time of the bottom water is longest, indicating the importance of manganese cycling through the water column. Porewater iron concentrations in the top 2 cm of sediment were highest near the heads of the lochs, i.e. near the main freshwater inputs. Within sediments of Lochs Goil, Fyne and Etive high rates of total sulphate reduction were associated with high relative rates of formation of acid volatile... |
