Seasonal variation in the contents of different metals (Al, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni and Zn) in two genera of macroalgae, Ulva and Enteromorpha was studied at 22 sites on the northwest coast of Spain. The seasonal variation in the different metals followed a similar pattern in both seaweeds and appeared to be caused by dilution during the period of maximum growth and concentration during periods of slow growth. Fluvial inputs of Al, Fe and Mn in autumn and winter appeared to accentuate the latter effect: the concentrations of these three metals in both macroalgae and of Cr in Enteromorpha were highest at those sites most influenced by inputs from rivers. The background levels of Cr, Cu, Ni and Zn in the algae in summer and winter were established.
