Monomethylmercury (CH3Hg) is the only form of mercury (Hg) known to biomagnify in food
webs. Here we investigate factors driving methylated mercury [MeHg= CH3Hg+(CH3) 2Hg)] …

Mercury and methylmercury were measured in seawater and biota collected from the outer
Bay of Fundy to better document mercury bioaccumulation in a temperate marine food web …

Mercury (Hg) is a global contaminant of environmental concern. Numerous factors
influencing its bioaccumulation in marine organisms have already been described at both …

The concentrations of total mercury (THg) and methylmercury (MeHg) were assessed in
water, sediment and biota (54 species) samples from the coast of Laizhou Bay, to evaluate …

The important role mangrove forests play in sequestering organic carbon is well known, yet
rates of organic carbon accumulation in macrotidal mangrove ecosystems are poorly …

The role of seafood consumption for dietary methylmercury (MeHg) exposure is well
established. Recent studies also reveal that rice consumption can be an important pathway …

The twilight zone contains the largest biomass of the world's ocean. Identifying its role in the
trophic supply and contaminant exposure of marine megafauna constitutes a critical …

In this study, 26 surface seawater samples, 26 surface sediment samples and 114
organisms were collected to study the trophic transfer and dietary exposure risk of mercury …

Mercury is responsible for serious episodes of environmental pollution throughout the world,
especially in the Amazon. This toxicity has led regulatory agencies to focus on fish as the …

Anthropogenic activities influence the biogeochemical cycles of mercury, both qualitatively
and quantitatively, on a global scale from sources to sinks. Anthropogenic processes that …
