  abstract = {{M}angroves can be considered as biogeochemical reactors along (sub)tropical coastlines, acting both as sinks or sources for trace metals depending on environmental factors, {I}n this study, we characterized the role of a mangrove estuary, developing downstream a densely populated megacity ({H}o {C}hi {M}inh {C}ity, {V}ietnam), on the fate and partitioning of trace metals. {S}urface water and suspended particulate matter were collected at four sites along the estuarine salinity gradient during 24 h cycling in dry and rainy seasons. {S}alinity, p{H}, {DO}, {TSS}, {POC}, {DOC}, dissolved and particulate {F}e, {M}n, {C}r, {A}s, {C}u, {N}i, {C}o and {P}b were measured. {TSS} was the main trace metals carrier during their transit in the estuary. {H}owever, {TSS} variations did not explain the whole variability of metals distribution. {M}n, {C}r and {A}s were highly reactive metals while the other metals ({F}e, {N}i, {C}u, {C}o and {P}b) presented stable log {K}-{D} values along the estuary. {O}rganic matter dynamic appeared to play a key role in metals fractioning. {I}ts decomposition during water transit in the estuary induced metal desorption, especially for {C}r and {A}s. {C}onversely, dissolved {M}n concentrations decreased along the estuary, which was suggested to result from {M}n oxidative precipitation onto solid phase due to oxidation and p{H} changes. {E}xtra sources as pore-water release, runoff from adjacent soils, or aquaculture effluents were suggested to be involved in trace metal dynamic in this estuary. {I}n addition, the monsoon increased metal loads, notably dissolved and particulate {F}e, {C}r, {N}i and {P}b.},
