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

The oceans, serving as some of the most extensive reservoirs of mercury (Hg) on Earth, play
an essential role in the global Hg biogeochemical circulation, as a sink for atmospheric …

Seabirds accumulate significant amounts of mercury (Hg) due to their long-life span together
with their medium to high trophic position in marine food webs. Hg speciation and Hg …

Mercury (Hg) is a globally important pollutant that can negatively impact metabolic,
endocrine and immune systems of marine biota. Seabirds are long-lived marine top …

To elucidate the sources and transfer of mercury (Hg) in terrestrial food chains, particularly in
heavily Hg-contaminated rice paddy ecosystems, we collected rice leaves, invertebrates …

A prerequisite for environmental and toxicological applications of mercury (Hg) stable
isotopes in wildlife and humans is quantifying the isotopic fractionation of biological …

Little is known about the bioaccumulation and trophic transfer of total mercury (THg) and
methylmercury (MeHg) via food webs in terrestrial ecosystems, especially in subtropical …

In order to comprehend the transfer of inorganic mercury (IHg) and methylmercury (MeHg)
within food chains in terrestrial pine forests, we collected samples of Great Tit nestlings …

The oceans become increasingly contaminated as a result of global industrial production
and consumer behaviour, and this affects wildlife in areas far removed from sources of …

The twilight zone contains the largest biomass of the world's ocean. Identifying its role in the
trophic supply and contaminant exposure of marine megafauna constitutes a critical …
