Abstract
⺠Seasonal dependence of trap metal composition driven by biological, physical and chemical processes. ⺠Terrestrial material during winter changing to marine-like towards spring and summer. ⺠Terrestrial inputs control Al/Ti/U/V; organic matter Cu/Pb/Zn/Cd; others depend upon both factors. ⺠Vertical fluxes of Cu/Pb/Zn increase with organic matter while continental inputs does for Al/Ti/U/V. ⺠Degradation of sedimentary organic matter releases metals (except Cd and Co) to the dissolved phase.
