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

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

Stable mercury (Hg) isotope ratios are an emerging tracer for biogeochemical
transformations in environmental systems, but their application requires knowledge of …

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

Once released into the atmosphere, mercury (Hg) is subject to long-range transport and a
series of physico-chemical reactions before reentering terrestrial ecosystems. Though …

The multielemental ultratrace detection capability of inductively coupled plasma mass
spectrometry (ICPMS) makes it a most powerful technique. With each new version of ICPMS …

Photoreduction of Hg in natural water plays a crucial role in the production of elemental Hg
and its biogeochemical cycle. Solar irradiation and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in water …

For many decades the accurate and precise determination of isotope ratios has remained a
very strong interest to many researchers due to its important applications in earth …

Stable Hg isotope ratios provide a new tool to trace environmental Hg cycling. Thiols (-SH)
are the dominant Hg-binding groups in natural organic matter. Here, we report experimental …

To study the sources and transformations of Hg in the rice plant (Oryza sativa L.), stable Hg
isotope variations in different tissues (foliage, root, stem, and seed) of rice which were …
