The results of long-term investigations of the concentrations of dissolved forms of some heavy metals (Mn, Cu, Zn, Pb, Cr, Cd) and their species in the water of the Dnieper reservoirs and the Dnieper-Bug estuary are considered. Chemiluminescent methods, anodic stripping voltammetry, membrane filtration, ion-exchange, and gel-permeation chromatography were used for study of the speciation of the metals. It has been found that binding of heavy metals into complexes with dissolved organic matter (DOM) is the dominant factor of their stabilization in solution. The molecular weight distribution of organic metal complexes and their chemical nature, as well as the potential complexing ability of DOM were investigated. Humic substances, particularly fulvic acids, play a major role in the complexation. These ligands bind from 45 to 80% of metals in the form of organic complexes. Metal complex compounds of relatively low molecular weight (<5 kDa) predominated in the organic complexes.
