Past and present anthropogenic mercury (Hg) release to ecosystems causes neurotoxicity
and cardiovascular disease in humans with an estimated economic cost of $117 billion USD …

Global anthropogenic and legacy mercury (Hg) emissions are the main sources of Arctic Hg
contamination, primarily transported there via the atmosphere. This review summarizes the …

Anthropogenic activities emit~ 2,000 Mg y− 1 of the toxic pollutant mercury (Hg) into the
atmosphere, leading to long-range transport and deposition to remote ecosystems. Global …

Microbial communities in the world ocean are affected strongly by oceanic circulation,
creating characteristic marine biomes. The high connectivity of most of the ocean makes it …

Atmospheric gaseous elemental mercury (GEM) concentrations in the Arctic exhibit a clear
summertime maximum, while the origin of this peak is still a matter of debate in the …

Lake Hazen, the largest lake north of the Arctic circle, is being impacted by mercury (Hg)
pollution and climate change. The lake is inhabited by two morphotypes of land-locked …

Abstract The Northeast Arctic cod (Gadus morhua) is the world's northernmost stock of
Atlantic cod and is of considerable ecological and economic importance. Northeast Arctic …

This study investigated the spatiotemporal variation, gas-particle partition, and source
resolution of atmospheric speciation mercury (ASM) in Kaohsiung Harbor and neighboring …

Global warming profoundly affects not only mountainous and polar environments, but also
the global and regional cycling of pollutants. Mercury (Hg) and persistent organic pollutants …

Abstract Atmospheric mercury (Hg (0), Hg (II)) and riverine exported Hg (Hg (II)) are
proposed as important Hg sources to the Arctic Ocean. As plankton cannot passively uptake …
