Mercury (Hg) is a global pollutant that emits in large quantities to the atmosphere (> 6,000–
8,000 Mg Hg per year) through anthropogenic activities, biomass burning, geogenic …

Anthropogenic mercury (Hg) emissions have driven marked increases in Arctic Hg levels,
which are now being impacted by regional warming, with uncertain ecological …

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 …

Background Environmental contamination by mercury is and will continue to be a serious
risk for human health. Pollution of the terrestrial environment is particularly important as it is …

Human exposure to toxic mercury (Hg) is dominated by the consumption of seafood 1, 2.
Earth system models suggest that Hg in marine ecosystems is supplied by atmospheric wet …

The atmosphere is a key component of the biogeochemical cycle of mercury, acting as a
reservoir, transport mechanism, and facilitator of chemical reactions. The chemical and …

Long-term monitoring of data of ambient mercury (Hg) on a global scale to assess its
emission, transport, atmospheric chemistry, and deposition processes is vital to …

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

Abstract Anthropogenic mercury (Hg (0)) emissions oxidize to gaseous Hg (II) compounds,
before deposition to Earth surface ecosystems. Atmospheric reduction of Hg (II) competes …

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 …
