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 …

Mercury (Hg) is ubiquitary, naturally enriched in volcanic regions, and has wide applications
in science, industry, and agriculture. Recently, the increasing awareness of Hg toxicity has …

Map** of surface soil Hg concentrations, a priority pollutant, at continental scale is
important in order to identify hotspots of soil Hg distribution (eg mining or industrial pollution) …

Mercury, a neurotoxic substance, circulates globally, significantly stored in soils through
atmospheric deposition and plant decay. Despite being deposited, mercury can be …

Mercury (Hg) in street dust has gained prominent research attention in several regions
worldwide owing to its implication as an environmental risk. However, similar studies in …

Terrestrial ecosystems store large amounts of mercury (Hg), which may be subject to
methylation, mobilization and uptake into downstream aquatic ecosystems. Mercury …

Mercury (Hg) is a highly toxic nonessential trace metal. Despite its natural occurrence in the
Earth's Crust, its concentrations have been steadily increasing in the environment due to …

Climatic changes in the northeastern US are expected to cause coniferous stands to
transition to deciduous stands over the next hundred years. Mercury (Hg) sequestration in …

The soils and food webs associated with mid to high elevation, forested, headwater streams
in northeastern North America are potential hotspots for mercury (Hg) methylation and …

Trace metals and metalloids (TMM) in forest soils and invasive earthworms were studied at 9
sites in northern New England, USA. Essential (Cu, Mo, Ni, Zn, Se) and toxic (As, Cd, Pb …
