dc.description.abstract |
Eastern North America receives elevated atmospheric mercury deposition from local, regional, and global sources. Forested regions with a high abundance of wetlands and unproductive surface waters are more susceptible accumulating high concentrations of mercury and are more sensitive to mercury deposition. This article explains the sources of mercury in the northeastern U.S., transport and transformation of mercury in forest-wetland-lake ecosystems, and taxonomic patterns of mercury exposure. |
