Behavior of KCl sorbent traps and KCl trapping solutions used for atmospheric mercury speciation: stability and specificity [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2021 Atmospheric mercury speciation is of paramount importance for understanding the behavior of mercury once it is emitted into the atmosphere as gaseous elemental mercury (GEM), gaseous oxidized mercury (GOM) and particulate-bound mercury (PBM). GOM and PBM

Summertime elemental mercury exchange of temperate grasslands on an ecosystem-scale [PDF]
, 2008 In order to estimate the air-surface mercury exchange of grasslands in temperate climate regions, fluxes of gaseous elemental mercury (GEM) were measured at two sites in Switzerland and one in Austria during summer 2006.

Observed in-plume gaseous elemental mercury depletion suggests significant mercury scavenging by volcanic aerosols [PDF]
, 2023 Terrestrial volcanism is known to emit mercury (Hg) into the atmosphere. However, despite many years of investigation, its net impact on the atmospheric Hg budget remains insufficiently constrained, in part because the transformations of Hg in volcanic ...

Exchange Reactions Alter Molecular Speciation of Gaseous Oxidized Mercury
, 2021 The knowledge of speciation of gaseous oxidized mercury (GOM) is crucial for understanding the atmospheric mercury chemistry and global cycle. Because of the low atmospheric abundance of GOM, its chemical analysis requires preconcentration and often ...
