Influence of forest canopies on the deposition of methylmercury to boreal ecosystem watersheds
DownloadFall 2010
Methylmercury (MeHg) is a potent vertebrate neurotoxin and a contaminant of global concern. Increased anthropogenic emissions of mercury (Hg) to the atmosphere have led to increased bioaccumulation of MeHg in top predatory organisms such as fish, the consumption of which is the main exposure...

Records of atmospheric mercury deposition and post-depositional mobility in peat permafrost archives from central and northern Yukon, Canada
DownloadFall 2017
Environmental archives provide a feasible means for studying the biogeochemical cycling of heavy metals including mercury (Hg). Although many temperate peat bogs have been successfully used to reconstruct natural and anthropogenic atmospheric Hg deposition fluxes, northern circumpolar permafrost...
