Mercury (Hg) is ubiquitary, naturally enriched in volcanic regions, and has wide applications
in science, industry, and agriculture. Recently, the increasing awareness of Hg toxicity has …

Mercury (Hg) is one of the most harmful metals and has been a public health concern
according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Artisanal and small-scale gold mining …

Long-term monitoring of data of ambient mercury (Hg) on a global scale to assess its
emission, transport, atmospheric chemistry, and deposition processes is vital to …

Volcanism is a potentially important natural source of mercury (Hg) to the environment.
However, its impact on the global Hg cycle remains poorly understood despite advances …

Long-range transport and residence time of elemental Hg (Hg°) in air promote global
dispersion and deposition in remote ecosystems. Many biotic and abiotic factors contribute …

Artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) is the largest sector of demand for mercury
(Hg), and therefore, one of the major sources of Hg pollution in the environment. This study …

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 …

Environmental mercury (Hg) contamination is a global concern requiring action at national
scales. Scientific understanding and regulatory policies are underpinned by global …

We assessed> 100 years of mercury (Hg) pollution recorded in the tree rings of Scots Pine
near a Czech chlor-alkali plant operating since 1941. Hg concentrations in tree rings …

Samples of soil, water, mine waste leachates, soil gas, and air were collected from areas
mined for mercury (Hg) and baseline sites in the Big Bend area, Texas, to evaluate potential …
