Speciated atmospheric mercury at the Waliguan Global Atmosphere Watch station in the northeastern Tibetan Plateau: implication of dust-related sources for particulate bound mercury [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2021
To understand the ambient levels and sources of atmospheric mercury (Hg) in the Tibetan Plateau, a full-year continuous measurement of speciated atmospheric mercury was conducted at the Waliguan (WLG) Baseline Observatory (3816 m a.s.l.) from May 2012 to

Inhalation Exposure to Gaseous and Particulate Bound Mercury Present in the Ambient Air over the Polluted Area of Southern Poland. [PDF]

Int J Environ Res Public Health, 2020
This study concerns the concentrations of gaseous and particle-bound mercury present in ambient air of two Polish sites, differing in terms of emission structure, and the estimation of inhalation risks related to those Hg species. The measurements of total gaseous mercury (TGM) and PM2.5-bound mercury (PBM) were performed at an urban station in Zabrze ...

Mass-Independent Fractionation of Mercury Stable Isotopes Reveals Atmospheric Transport Impact on Particulate-Bound Mercury

Geophysical Research Letters
Abstract Atmospheric particulate‐bound mercury (PBM), adsorbed onto aerosols like TSP and PM 2.5 (PBM TSP and PBM 2.5 ), is crucial to the Hg biogeochemical cycle.

Influence of Spring Dust Storm on Atmospheric Particulate-Bound Mercury in a Typical Inland City of Northern China: Characteristics, Sources, and Risk Assessment

Sustainability
Particulate-bound mercury (PBM) has a large dry-deposition rate and removal coefficient, both of which import mercury into terrestrial and marine ecosystems, causing global environmental problems. In order to illustrate the concentration characteristics, main sources, and health risk of PBM in the atmospheric environment during the spring dust storm ...

Particle-Bound Mercury Characterization in the Central Italian Herbarium of the Natural History Museum of the University of Florence (Italy)

Toxics, 2021
Museums air quality can be negatively affected by treatments with heavy metals compounds employed to prevent pest infestations. Among these, the past use of mercury dichloride (HgCl2) on herbaria artifacts currently produces high levels of indoor ...

Atmospheric mercury in a developed region of eastern China: Interannual variation and gas-particle partitioning

Heliyon, 2023
Atmospheric mercury plays a crucial role in the biogeochemical cycle of mercury. This study conducted an intensive measurement of atmospheric mercury from 2015 to 2018 at a regional site in eastern China. During this period, the concentration of particle-

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
