We review recent progress in our understanding of the global cycling of mercury (Hg),
including best estimates of Hg concentrations and pool sizes in major environmental …

The biogeochemical cycling of metals in natural systems is often accompanied by stable
isotope fractionation which can now be measured due to recent analytical advances. In …

Virtually all biotic, dark abiotic, and photochemical transformations of mercury (Hg) produce
Hg isotope fractionation, which can be either mass dependent (MDF) or mass independent …

Abstract The Minamata Convention on Mercury (MC) includes provisions for a global
monitoring program (GMP) and effectiveness evaluation (EE) to provide information on …

Forests mediate the biogeochemical cycling of mercury (Hg) between the atmosphere and
terrestrial ecosystems; however, there remain many gaps in our understanding of these …

Monitoring mercury (Hg) levels in biota is considered an important objective for the
effectiveness evaluation of the Minamata Convention. While many studies have …

Peatland vegetation takes up mercury (Hg) from the atmosphere, typically contributing to net
production and export of neurotoxic methyl-Hg to downstream ecosystems. Chemical …

Soils comprise the largest terrestrial mercury (Hg) pool in exchange with the atmosphere. To
predict how anthropogenic emissions affect global Hg cycling and eventually human Hg …

Isotopic variations usually follow mass-dependent fractionation, meaning that the relative
variations in isotopic ratios scale with the difference in mass of the isotopes involved (eg …

Abstract Development of multifunctional bioadsorbents by a simple method for selective
capture of the toxic Hg (II) from aqueous media, and subsequent reuse of the spent Hg (II) …
