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 …

Large igneous province (LIP) eruptions are increasingly considered to have driven mass
extinction events throughout the Phanerozoic; however, uncertainties in radiometric age …

Global warming and declining water resources are threatening the sustainability of rice
production and global food security. Conventional continuously flooded system (CF) of rice …

The sources of isotopically light carbon released during the end-Triassic mass extinction
remain in debate. Here, we use mercury (Hg) concentrations and isotopes from a pelagic …

Metals in soil are potentially harmful to humans and ecosystems. Stable isotope
measurement may provide “fingerprint” information on the sources of metals. In light of the …

Virtually all biotic, dark abiotic, and photochemical transformations of mercury (Hg) produce
Hg isotope fractionation, which can be either mass dependent (MDF) or mass independent …

Metal toxicity in plants is still a global problem for the environment, agriculture and ultimately
human health. This review initially addresses the current state of the environmental …

Abstract The Minamata Convention on Mercury (MC) includes provisions for a global
monitoring program (GMP) and effectiveness evaluation (EE) to provide information on …

Assimilation of mercury (Hg) by vegetation represents one of the largest global
environmental Hg mass fluxes. We estimate Hg assimilation by vegetation globally via a …

Barium (Ba) mining and smelting activities release heavy metal (loid) s (HMs) that may
cause threats to agroecological systems and human health. Here, contamination features …
