Applications of Mercury Stable Isotopes in Environmental Forensics [PDF]

open access: yes대한환경공학회지, 2022
Mercury is a globally distributed toxic trace metal, which can travel long distances in the atmosphere and bioaccumulate to elevated levels in ecosystem food webs.

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

open access: yes, 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 ...

New Jersey Mercury Task Force Report, Volume III: Sources of Mercury in New Jersey

open access: yes, 2002
The Task Force was directed to complete the following tasks: 1. Review the current science on: a) impacts of mercury pollution on public health and ecosystems; and b) mercury deposition, transport, and exposure pathways. 2.

Summertime elemental mercury exchange of temperate grasslands on an ecosystem-scale [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Solar sail capture trajectories at Mercury

open access: yes, 2002
Mercury is an ideal environment for future planetary exploration by solar sail since it has proved difficult to reach with conventional propulsion and hence remains largely unexplored.

Binding-Time Analysis for Mercury

open access: yes, 2004
In this work, we develop a binding-time analysis for the logic programming language Mercury. We introduce a precise domain of binding-times, based on the type information available in Mercury programs, that allows the analyser to reason with partially ...

The prevalence of inorganic mercury in human cells increases during aging but decreases in the very old

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Successful aging is likely to involve both genetic and environmental factors, but environmental toxicants that accelerate aging are not known. Human exposure to mercury is common, and mercury has genotoxic, autoimmune, and free radical effects which ...

Linking neurogenesis, oligodendrogenesis, and myelination defects to neurodevelopmental disruption in primary mitochondrial disorders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial remodeling shapes neural and glial lineage progression by matching metabolic supply with demand. Elevated OXPHOS supports differentiation and myelin formation, while myelin compaction lowers mitochondrial dependence, revealing mitochondria as key drivers of developmental energy adaptation.
