Observations of atmospheric mercury in China: a critical review
TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the state of understanding in atmospheric Hg in China can be found in this paper, where a small increase in atmospheric GEM (2.4-2.5 % yr−1) was identified using 7-9 years of continuous observations at a remote site and an urban site.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isotopic Composition of Atmospheric Mercury in China: New Evidence for Sources and Transformation Processes in Air and in Vegetation.
Ben Yu,Xuewu Fu,Runsheng Yin,Hui Zhang,Xun Wang,Che-Jen Lin,Che-Jen Lin,Chuansheng Wu,Yiping Zhang,Nannan He,Pingqing Fu,Zifa Wang,Lihai Shang,Jonas Sommar,Jeroen E. Sonke,Laurence Maurice,Benjamin Guinot,Xinbin Feng +17 more
TL;DR: The diagnostic stable Hg isotopic composition characteristics for separating atmospheric Hg of different source origins in China are demonstrated and the isotopic fractionation clues for the study of Hg bioaccumulation are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mercury isotope variations between bioavailable mercury fractions and total mercury in mercury contaminated soil in Wanshan Mercury Mine, SW China
TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison of the mobility of soil mercury with two different extractable treatments (water-treated and (NH 4 ) 2 S 2 O 3 -treated) was carried out in soil samples collected from Wanshan Mercury Mine (WSMM), Guizhou, SW China.
Journal ArticleDOI
Depletion of atmospheric gaseous elemental mercury by plant uptake at Mt.Changbai, Northeast China
Xuewu Fu,Wei Zhu,Hui Zhang,Jonas Sommar,Ben Yu,Xu Yang,Xun Wang,Che-Jen Lin,Che-Jen Lin,Xinbin Feng +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, GEM depletions in a temperate mixed forest at Mt. Changbai, Northeast China were reported during the leaf growing season and in the absence of gaseous oxidized mercury enrichment (GOM enrichment).
Journal ArticleDOI
Trends and advances in mercury stable isotopes as a geochemical tracer
TL;DR: A review of the analytical methods, the contrasting isotope fractionation during Hg geochemical transformation, the isotopic signatures of different geochemical reservoirs, and the potential uses of Hg isotopes in the future is presented in this article.
