Arctic mercury cycling
Anthropogenic mercury (Hg) emissions have driven marked increases in Arctic Hg levels, which are now being impacted by regional warming, with uncertain ecological consequences. This Review presents a comprehensive assessment of the present-day total Hg mas ...
2022Evidence that Pacific tuna mercury levels are driven by marine methylmercury production and anthropogenic inputs
Pacific Ocean tuna is among the most-consumed seafood products but contains relatively high levels of the neurotoxin methylmercury. Limited observations suggest tuna mercury levels vary in space and time, yet the drivers are not well understood. Here, we m ...
National Academy of Sciences2022Detailed hydrodynamics of cold density currents generated by differential cooling along the sloping bed of Lake Geneva
David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, François Mettra, Rafael Sebastian Reiss
Deep water ventilation and mixing are of great importance for large lake ecosystems. Relevant processes include cold density currents due to differential cooling, inter-basin exchange and upwelling. At present, a good understanding of these processes in la ...
2021High-resolution underwater laser spectrometer sensing provides new insights into methane distribution at an Arctic seepage site
Methane (CH4) in marine sediments has the potential to contribute to changes in the ocean and climate system. Physical and biochemical processes that are difficult to quantify with current standard methods such as acoustic surveys and discrete sampling gov ...
Copernicus GmbH2019Global spatial analysis of toxic emissions to freshwater: operationalization for LCA
PurposeThere is increasing interest in using fate and exposure models to spatially differentiate the impacts of chemical emissions. This work aims at exploring the operationalization in life cycle assessment (LCA) of spatially differentiated models for tox ...
SPRINGER HEIDELBERG2019Simulating Biogenic Secondary Organic Aerosol During Summertime in China
Biogenic secondary organic aerosol (BSOA) contributes significantly to summertime organic particulate matter. In this study, a simulation of BSOA for summer 2012 over China is performed using the Community Multiscale Air Quality model with an explicit repr ...
