Vanadium (V) is a highly toxic multivalent, redox-sensitive element. It is widely distributed in
the environment and employed in various industrial applications. Interactions between V …

Past and present anthropogenic mercury (Hg) release to ecosystems causes neurotoxicity
and cardiovascular disease in humans with an estimated economic cost of $117 billion USD …

Toxic trace elements (TEs) can pose serious risks to ecosystems and human health.
However, a comprehensive understanding of atmospheric emission inventories for several …

Global anthropogenic and legacy mercury (Hg) emissions are the main sources of Arctic Hg
contamination, primarily transported there via the atmosphere. This review summarizes the …

Recent studies demonstrate a short 3–6-month atmospheric lifetime for mercury (Hg). This
implies Hg emissions are predominantly deposited within the same hemisphere in which …

The biogeochemical cycling of mercury in aquatic environments is a complex process driven
by various factors, such as ambient temperature, seasonal variations, methylating bacteria …

During Arctic springtime, halogen radicals oxidize atmospheric elemental mercury (Hg0),
which deposits to the cryosphere. This is followed by a summertime atmospheric Hg0 peak …

While the dominant role of halogens in Arctic ozone loss during spring has been widely
studied in the last decades, the impact of sea-ice halogens on surface ozone abundance …

Atmospheric gaseous elemental mercury (GEM) concentrations in the Arctic exhibit a clear
summertime maximum, while the origin of this peak is still a matter of debate in the …

Anthropogenic mercury (Hg) undergoes long-range transport to the Arctic where some of it is
transformed into methylmercury (MeHg), potentially leading to high exposure in some Arctic …
