Long-range transport and residence time of elemental Hg (Hg°) in air promote global
dispersion and deposition in remote ecosystems. Many biotic and abiotic factors contribute …

This paper reviews the speciation and determination of mercury by various analytical
techniques such as atomic absorption spectrometry, voltammetry, inductively coupled …

Maritime transportation is recognized to have advantages in terms of environmental impact
compared to other forms of transportation. However, an increment in traffic volumes will also …

Tree barks are relevant interfaces between plants and the external environment, and can
effectively retain airborne particles and elements at their surface. In this paper we have …

Background Arsenic in drinking water is a global public health concern. This study aims to
investigate the association between chronic low-level exposure to arsenic in drinking water …

Abstract The Minamata Convention on Mercury (Hg) requires improved atmospheric Hg
monitoring and characterization of Hg sources. Here we demonstrate how a network of …

We present the first real attempt to directly and continuously measure GEM through a Lumex
RA-915 M, designed for real-time detection of mercury vapor, mounted on an UAV …

Lichens play an important role in the biogeochemical cycling of mercury (Hg) and are
commonly used as indicators of Hg enrichment in remote and anthropogenically impacted …

Abstract The decommissioned fahlore Cu-Sb (-Ag) mine at Mt. Avanza (Carnic Alps, Italy) is
a rare example of exploited ore deposits, as the tetrahedrite (Cu6 [Cu4 (Fe, Zn) 2] Sb4S13) …

A geochemical study was carried out at the former Abbadia San Salvatore (ASS) mining site
of the Monte Amiata ore district (Italy). Hg, As and Sb total contents and fractionation using a …
