Beyond the Iron age : : the ecological relevance of bioactive trace metals other than Fe (e.g., Co, Mo, Ni) and organic growth factors (e.g., vitamins) in aquatic systems / / edited by Laura Gómez-Consarnau and Sergio Sanudo-Wilhelmy.

In the last three decades, research has extensively focused on the role of Fe and other mineral nutrients in regulating biological processes, ranging from the surface to the deep ocean. This has produced major breakthroughs in our understanding of the fundamental role of those bioactive elements on...
