Abstract

The formation mechanisms of dissolved Mn flux from bottom sediments into water are considered. Data that characterize the processes of Mn compound transformations and factors that govern those processes are given. Data on the magnitudes of Mn fluxes from bed into water and processes that govern them are generalized.
