Methylmercury contamination of the environment is an important issue globally, and birds
are useful bioindicators for mercury monitoring programs. The available data on mercury …

Wild piscivorous fish, mammals, and birds may be at risk for elevated dietary methylmercury
intake and toxicity. In controlled feeding studies, the consumption of diets that contained Hg …

Mercury is a potent neurotoxin that poses health risks to the global population.
Anthropogenic mercury emissions to the atmosphere are projected to decrease in the future …

Each year ecotoxicological problems become increasingly complex and encompass
broader spatial and temporal scales. Our practical understanding must evolve accordingly to …

This review critically evaluates the available mercury (Hg) data in Arctic marine biota and the
Inuit population against toxicity threshold values. In particular marine top predators exhibit …

Mercury is a ubiquitous environmental contaminant known to accumulate in, and negatively
affect, fish-eating and oceanic bird species, and recently demonstrated to impact some …

Exposure to methylmercury (MeHg) can result in detrimental health effects in wildlife. With
advances in ecological indicators and analytical techniques for measurement of MeHg in a …

In this paper, we review the current understanding on ecosystem and human health impacts
from the atmospheric deposition of acidifying pollutants, eutrophying nitrogen (N), polycyclic …

Mercury (Hg) is well studied and research continues as our knowledge of its health risks
increases. One expanding area of research not well emphasized to date is the endocrine …

Anthropogenic inputs of mercury (Hg) into the environment have significantly increased in
the past century. Concurrently, the availability of methylmercury (MeHg) in aquatic systems …
