Mercury (Hg) contamination in tundra region has raised substantial concerns, especially
since the first report of atmospheric mercury depletion events (AMDEs) in the Polar Regions …

Anthropogenic mercury (Hg) undergoes long-range transport to the Arctic where some of it is
transformed into methylmercury (MeHg), potentially leading to high exposure in some Arctic …

Anthropogenic mercury (Hg) emissions have driven marked increases in Arctic Hg levels,
which are now being impacted by regional warming, with uncertain ecological …

The Arctic region forms a unique environment with specific physical, chemical, and
biological processes affecting mercury (Hg) cycles and limited anthropogenic Hg sources …

Dramatic environmental shifts are occuring throughout the Arctic from climate change, with
consequences for the cycling of mercury (Hg). This review summarizes the latest science on …

Environmental context Mercury, in its methylated form, is a neurotoxin that biomagnifies in
marine and terrestrial foodwebs leading to elevated levels in fish and fish-eating mammals …

This study was carried out to see whether the geographical extent of the mercury depletion
events (MDEs), first seen at Alert in the Canadian High Arctic, is also covering Svalbard …

Part of the mercury (Hg) entering Arctic ecosystems is believed to be delivered from the
atmosphere in snow but this source is difficult to quantify due to limited spatial coverage of …

Abstract Contaminants in the Canadian Arctic have been studied over the last twenty years
under the guidance of the Northern Contaminants Program. This paper provides the current …

There has been increasing concern about mercury (Hg) levels in marine and freshwater
