A new method for interpretation of direct titration of natural waters with trace metals is described based on a graph of the ratio between the free and bound metal concentration vs. the free metal concentration. The application of this method, which is based on a 1:1 complex formation model, is discussed with respect to trace metal speciation in natural waters. Procedures for interpretation of experimental results are proposed for those cases where two types of complexes with different conditional stability constants are formed, or where the metal is adsorbed on colloidal particles. The advantages of the proposed method in comparison with earlier methods are presented theoretically and illustrated with some experiments on copper(II) in seawater. The limitations of the method are also discussed.
