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

Mercury is a fascinating fluid metal that exists as liquid at 25 C (0 C= 273 K). This silver
colored d-block heavy metal exhibits noble-gas-like characteristics and solidifies at a …

Microbial mercury (Hg) methylation transforms a toxic trace metal into the highly
bioaccumulated neurotoxin methylmercury (MeHg). The lack of a genetic marker for …

Mercury pollution poses global human health and environmental risks. Although mercury is
naturally present in the environment, human activities, such as coal burning, have increased …

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 …

Fish harvested from the Pacific Ocean are a major contributor to human methylmercury
(MeHg) exposure. Limited oceanic mercury (Hg) data, particularly MeHg, has confounded …

Monomethylmercury is a neurotoxin that accumulates in marine organisms, with serious
implications for human health. The toxin is of particular concern to northern Inuit peoples, for …

Recent studies have shown that climate change is already having significant impacts on
many aspects of transport pathways, speciation and cycling of mercury within Arctic …

Methylmercury (MeHg) is a neurotoxin, mainly derived from microbial mercury methylation in
natural aquatic environments, and poses threats to human health. Polar regions and paddy …

Methylmercury is a potent neurotoxin that accumulates in aquatic food webs. Human
activities, including industry and mining, have increased inorganic mercury inputs to …
