Studies on methylmercury compounds in Ictalurus nebulosus (Le Sueur, 1819) exposed to mercury chloride [PDF]
Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 1980 Individuals of Ictalurus nebulosus (Le Sueur, 1819) were bathed in solutions of HgCl2 and CH3HgCl. Methylmercury compounds were detected in muscles, liver, and kidneys of those individuals exposed to HgCl2, which indicates mercury methylation to have ...

Sedimentary Mercury Enrichments as a Tracer of Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 247-262., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
