Total mercury concentrations in an industrialized catchment, the Thur River basin (north-eastern France): geochemical background level and contamination factors [PDF]

, 2003
River bottom sediments and soils were collected from the industrialized Thur River basin (north-eastern France) to assess mercury contamination. The regional geochemical background level of total mercury was evaluated to calculate mercury contamination ...

Mercury stable isotopes constrain atmospheric sources to the ocean [PDF]

, 2021
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 and dry Hg(II) deposition, with a three times smaller contribution from ...

Extractability and mobility of mercury from agricultural soils surrounding industrial and mining contaminated areas [PDF]

, 2010
This study focussed on a comparison of the extractability of mercury in soils with two different contamination sources (a chlor-alkali plant and mining activities) and on the evaluation of the influence of specific soil properties on the behaviour of the

Modeling the global atmospheric transport and deposition of mercury to the Great Lakes

Elementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2016
Mercury contamination in the Great Lakes continues to have important public health and wildlife ecotoxicology impacts, and atmospheric deposition is a significant ongoing loading pathway.

Long-Term Trends in Regional Wet Mercury Deposition and Lacustrine Mercury Concentrations in Four Lakes in Voyageurs National Park

Applied Sciences, 2021
Although anthropogenic mercury (Hg) releases to the environment have been substantially lowered in the United States and Canada since 1990, concerns remain for contamination in fish from remote lakes and rivers where atmospheric deposition is the ...
