TL;DR: The general conclusion is that Hg contamination in Wanshan is geographically more widespread, due to deposition and scavenging of Hg from contaminated air and deposition on land, and the population mostly at risk is located in the vicinity of smelting facilities, mining activities and close to the waste disposal sites in the wider area of Wansan.

TL;DR: Data obtained show that even 10 years after closure of the Hg mine, Hg concentrations in river sediments and water are still very high and did not show the expected decrease of Hg in the Gulf of Trieste.

TL;DR: A summary of data recently obtained for mercury analysis and speciation in filtered and non-filtered seawater samples, dissolved gaseous mercury (DGM) and dimethylmercury (DMHg) in open and coastal waters of the Mediterranean Sea is presented in this paper.

TL;DR: From the preliminary Hg mass balance it appears that the Gulf is an efficient trap for total Hg and a net source of MeHg, and strong seasonal variation of sedimentation rates of particulate Hg was found during a 2-year study in the central part of the Gulf.

TL;DR: In this paper, measurements of total Hg and monomethylmercury (MeHg) in various environmental compartments in the rivers Idrijca and So|$$|Ahca and the Gulf of Trieste during the period 1998-2000 were described.
