Mercury (Hg) researchers have made progress in understanding atmospheric Hg, especially
with respect to oxidized Hg (HgII) that can represent 2 to 20% of Hg in the atmosphere …

Highlights in the field of air analysis included: a new focus on measuring tyre-wear particle
emissions; an interest in using unmanned aerial vehicles for sampling purposes and an …

Detrimental effects of mercury (Hg) on ecosystems and human health have been well-
documented. Whereas emissions of gaseous elemental mercury (GEM) from e-waste …

The growing need to monitor Hg levels in the environment to control its emissions and
evaluate the effectiveness of reduction policies is driving the scientific community to focus …

Lichens play an important role in the biogeochemical cycling of mercury (Hg) and are
