Earth, third planet from the Sun and the fifth largest planet in the solar system in terms of size and mass. Its single most outstanding feature is that its near-surface environments are the only places in the universe known to harbor life. Learn more ab
Our study demonstrates Hg isotope approach is a powerful tool for tracing the sources (and pathways) of Hg and its vectors in the atmosphere, and stresses the importance of studying toxic metals such as Hg (and other heavy metals) in atmospheric particles and their potential threat to human ...
Tropic of Cancer, latitude approximately 23 degrees 27 minutes north of the terrestrial Equator. This latitude corresponds to the northernmost declination of the Sun’s ecliptic to the celestial equator. At the summer solstice in the Northern Hemisphere,

9. Trace metals are important components of atmospheric particles, potentially contributing to chemical reactions in the atmosphere, and thus affect atmospheric pollution and climate. Once deposited on the surface ocean, trace metals such as iron, magnesium, and copper can serve as micronutrients to ...
Hydrochemical and atmochemical mercury dispersion zones over hydrothermal vents of the submarine Piip Volcano in the Bering Sea Signs of mercury input and dispersion in the water mass and the atmosphere over the submarine Piip Volcano have been revealed. The mercury from hydrotherma... AS Astakhov...
Modern industrialization has increased Hg loading into the surface environment by a factor of 2–5 [7], [8]. Coal combustion is the main anthropogenic Hg source, reaching 700–900 tons/year into atmosphere [1], [2], [9]. Coal-fired power plants are considered to be the largest point ...
