Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) combines plasma chemistry, which
produces singly charged elemental ions, with mass spectrometric detection. Unlike other …

Abstract Purpose of Review The concern of mercury pollution and the impact that it poses on
the marine environment were studied heavily since the case of the poison from Minamata …

Abstract Since the last Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme (AMAP) effort to
review biological effects of mercury (Hg) on Arctic biota in 2011 and 2018, there has been a …

Forest ecosystem accounts for 31% of global land areas and plays a key role in the global
biogeochemical cycling of mercury (Hg). In this critical review, datasets of Hg flux …

Long-range transport and atmospheric deposition of gaseous mercury (Hg0) result in
significant accumulation of Hg in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP). However, there are …

The number of studies using various stable isotope systems for tracing contamination
sources and various biogeochemical processes is rapidly rising due to the increased …

Guizhou Province is located in the heart of a karst zone in southwest China, which is one of
the largest karst areas in the world. Given the fragile surface ecosystem and highly …

Knowledge gaps in mercury (Hg) biomagnification in forest birds, especially in the most
species-rich tropical and subtropical forests, limit our understanding of the ecological risks of …

The focus of this paper is to briefly discuss the major advances in scientific thinking
regarding: a) processes governing the fate and transport of mercury in the environment; b) …

Air–soil exchange of elemental mercury vapor (Hg0) is an important component in the
budget of the global mercury cycle. However, its mechanistic detail is poorly understood. In …
