Iron is one of the most abundant elements in the environment. It is also an essential micronutrient for most known aquatic organisms, Its role in primary production in natural waters is very important. However, the low solubility of iron oxides at pHs, significant the low availability of iron to aquatic plants and microorganisms. Goethite, an iron oxohydroxide, is one of the most abundant iron oxide in the natural marine environment.
