Mercury (Hg) is a global pollutant that emits in large quantities to the atmosphere (> 6,000–
8,000 Mg Hg per year) through anthropogenic activities, biomass burning, geogenic …

Abstract The Minamata Convention on Mercury (MC) includes provisions for a global
monitoring program (GMP) and effectiveness evaluation (EE) to provide information on …

Human exposure to toxic mercury (Hg) is dominated by the consumption of seafood 1, 2.
Earth system models suggest that Hg in marine ecosystems is supplied by atmospheric wet …

Bluefin tuna (BFT), highly prized among consumers, accumulate high levels of mercury (Hg)
as neurotoxic methylmercury (MeHg). However, how Hg bioaccumulation varies among …

Due to the advent of cold vapor-multicollector-inductively coupled plasma mass
spectrometry (CV-MC-ICP-MS) in the past two decades, many research groups studying …

Monomethylmercury (MMHg) is a potent toxin that bioaccumulates and magnifies in marine
food webs. Recent studies show abundant methylated Hg in deep oceans (> 1000 m), yet its …

Mercury isotopic compositions of amphipods and snailfish from deep-sea trenches reveal
information on the sources and transformations of mercury in the deep oceans. Evidence for …

Methylmercury (MeHg) is a potent neurotoxin that bioaccumulates in seafood. Co-
occurrence of selenium (Se) may affect the bioavailability and toxicity of MeHg in organisms …

Temporal and spatial variations in sea ice coverage at high Northern Hemisphere latitudes
have been shown to affect the photodegradation of methylmercury in seawater and the …

Quantifying vertical distributions of pelagic predators elucidates pelagic ecosystem structure
and informs fisheries management. In the tropical South Atlantic Ocean, the recently …
