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

Global emissions of mercury continue to change at the same time as the Arctic is
experiencing ongoing climatic changes. Continuous monitoring of atmospheric mercury …

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

Long-range atmospheric transport and deposition are important sources of mercury (Hg) to
Arctic aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. We review here recent progress made in the study …

A review of mercury in the Canadian Arctic with a focus on field measurements is presented
in part I (see Steffen et al., this issue). Here we provide insights into the dynamics of mercury …

Atmospheric mercury (Hg) in the Arctic shows much weaker or insignificant annual declines
relative to northern midlatitudes over the past decade (2000–2009) but with strong …

Environmental context. Mercury (Hg) occurs at high concentrations in Arctic marine wildlife,
posing a possible health risk to northern peoples who use these animals for food. We find …

Measurements of gaseous elemental mercury (GEM), reactive gaseous mercury (RGM) and
particulate mercury (PHg) were collected on the Beaufort Sea ice near Barrow, Alaska, in …

Gaseous elemental mercury (GEM) is converted to reactive gaseous mercury (RGM) during
springtime Atmospheric Mercury Depletion Events (AMDE). This study reports the longest …
