Vanadium (V) is a highly toxic multivalent, redox-sensitive element. It is widely distributed in
the environment and employed in various industrial applications. Interactions between V …

Wildfires act as important ecosystem controls and can benefit fire-adapted biomes by
promoting habitat heterogeneity, seed germination and disease control. However, the …

Past and present anthropogenic mercury (Hg) release to ecosystems causes neurotoxicity
and cardiovascular disease in humans with an estimated economic cost of $117 billion USD …

Toxic trace elements (TEs) can pose serious risks to ecosystems and human health.
However, a comprehensive understanding of atmospheric emission inventories for several …

Global anthropogenic and legacy mercury (Hg) emissions are the main sources of Arctic Hg
contamination, primarily transported there via the atmosphere. This review summarizes the …

Recent studies demonstrate a short 3–6-month atmospheric lifetime for mercury (Hg). This
implies Hg emissions are predominantly deposited within the same hemisphere in which …

During Arctic springtime, halogen radicals oxidize atmospheric elemental mercury (Hg0),
which deposits to the cryosphere. This is followed by a summertime atmospheric Hg0 peak …

The portable detection of trace mercury ions (Hg 2+) in water is crucial for preventing and
controlling mercury pollution. In this study, graphitic carbon nitride nanoparticles (CNNPs) …

Mercury biomagnification in aquatic ecosystems is a global issue. Biomagnification patterns
and drivers in alpine regions remain poorly understood. Hg biomagnification in the aquatic …

Mercury is a pollutant of global concern, especially in the Arctic, where high levels are found
in biota despite its remote location. Mercury is transported to the Arctic via atmospheric …
