Is oxidation of atmospheric mercury controlled by different mechanisms in the polluted continental boundary layer vs. remote marine boundary layer?

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2020
Deposition of atmospheric mercury is of global concern, primarily due to health effects associated with efficient bioaccumulation of mercury in marine food webs.

Airborne Vertical Profiling of Mercury Speciation near Tullahoma, TN, USA

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2014
Atmospheric transport and in situ oxidation are important factors influencing mercury concentrations at the surface and wet and dry deposition rates. Contributions of both natural and anthropogenic processes can significantly impact burdens of mercury on

Mercury emissions of a coal-fired power plant in Germany [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016
Hg ∕ SO2, Hg ∕ CO, NOx ∕ SO2 (NOx being the sum of NO and NO2) emission ratios (ERs) in the plume of the coal-fired power plant (CFPP), Lippendorf, near Leipzig, Germany, were determined within the European Tropospheric Mercury Experiment (ETMEP ...

Atmospheric mercury speciation and mercury in snow over time at Alert, Canada [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2014
Ten years of atmospheric mercury speciation data and 14 years of mercury in snow data from Alert, Nunavut, Canada, are examined. The speciation data, collected from 2002 to 2011, includes gaseous elemental mercury (GEM), particulate mercury (PHg) and ...

A Survey of Mercury in Air and Precipitation across Canada: Patterns and Trends

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2014
Atmospheric mercury (Hg) measurements from across Canada were compiled and analysed as part of a national Hg science assessment. Here we update long-term trends of Hg in air and precipitation, and present more extensive measurements on patterns and ...

Atmospheric speciated mercury concentrations on an island between China and Korea: sources and transport pathways [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016
As a global pollutant, mercury (Hg) is of particular concern in East Asia, where anthropogenic emissions are the largest. In this study, speciated Hg concentrations were measured on Yongheung Island, the westernmost island in Korea, located between ...

Monsoon-facilitated characteristics and transport of atmospheric mercury at a high-altitude background site in southwestern China [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016
To better understand the influence of monsoonal climate and transport of atmospheric mercury (Hg) in southwestern China, measurements of total gaseous mercury (TGM, defined as the sum of gaseous elemental mercury, GEM, and gaseous oxidized mercury ...

Comparison of Atmospheric Mercury Speciation at a Coastal and an Urban Site in Southeastern Texas, USA

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2020
Sixteen months of continuous measurements and the analysis of atmospheric mercury (gaseous elemental mercury GEM, gaseous oxidized mercury GOM, and particulate bound mercury PBM) under urban and coastal settings were conducted in Southeastern Texas.

Measuring and modeling mercury in the atmosphere: a critical review [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015
Mercury (Hg) is a global health concern due to its toxicity and ubiquitous presence in the environment. Here we review current methods for measuring the forms of Hg in the atmosphere and models used to interpret these data.
