Patterns and Drivers of Mercury Accumulation in Croplands, a Meta‐Analysis
Abstract Mercury (Hg) is a potent neurotoxin that poses risks to human and environmental health, particularly in regions influenced by anthropogenic Hg emissions. Although Hg emissions have declined across North America and Europe following regulatory controls and phase‐outs, emissions remain elevated in some regions due to activities such as artisanal
