Paramagnetic complexes of iron (III), manganese (II), and cobalt (II) protoporphyrins IX and apohemoproteins react with nitric oxide to form spectroscopically distinct compounds. Optical and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) studies suggest that a l-electron transfer between nitric oxides and metal ions which occurs in these reactions results in the formation of spin-paired complexes of the...

The Costa Rica upwelling dome (CRD; ;8.678N and 90.68W) was characterized chemically for cobalt and nickel abundances and speciation and biologically using cyanobacterial abundances and phylogeny. Total dissolved cobalt was 93 pmol L21 at 90 m depth and decreased in surface waters to 45 pmol L21 at 10 m. Cobalt was 40% labile at 90 m but was completely complexed by strong ligands at 10 m. A sur...
