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 …

Methylmercury (MeHg) is an environmental contaminant of concern because it biomagnifies
in aquatic food webs and poses a health hazard to aquatic biota, piscivorous wildlife and …

The origin and composition of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in porewater of lake
sediments is intricate and decisive for fate of pollutants including mercury (Hg). While there …

An important provision of the Minamata Convention on Mercury is to monitor and evaluate
the effectiveness of the adopted measures and its implementation. Here, we describe for the …

Mercury (Hg) is a ubiquitous toxic metal that biomagnifies in food webs, and can reach high
concentrations in top predators. Evaluating Hg biomagnification in Arctic marine food webs …

Mercury (Hg) is a ubiquitous metal in the ocean that undergoes in situ chemical
transformations in seawater and marine sediment. Most relevant to public health is the …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) influences the environmental fate and toxic effects of trace
metals such as mercury (Hg). However, because of limits in DOM analytical techniques and …

Monomethylmercury (CH3Hg) is the only form of mercury (Hg) known to biomagnify in food
webs. Here we investigate factors driving methylated mercury [MeHg= CH3Hg+(CH3) 2Hg)] …

Pacific Ocean tuna is among the most-consumed seafood products but contains relatively
high levels of the neurotoxin methylmercury. Limited observations suggest tuna mercury …

Quantitative knowledge about the burial of sedimentary components at the seafloor has
wide‐ranging implications in ocean science, from global climate to continental weathering …
