DOI: 10.1002/etc.5330
Abstract: Forest harvesting affects dissolved organic matter (DOM) and aqueous mercury inputs as well as the food web structure in small‐headwater streams, but how these upstream changes manifest downstream is unclear. To address this uncertainty, we… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/lno.11366
Abstract: Abstract Mercury (Hg) is a natural and widespread trace metal, but is considered a priority pollutant, particularly its organic form methylmercury (MMHg), because of human's exposure to MMHg through fish consumption. Pioneering studies showed the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11356-019-06989-9
Abstract: Methylmercury (MeHg+) is a neurotoxicant abundantly present in the environment. The long-term effects of MeHg+ have been investigated in rodents, yet data on the long-term or persisted toxicity of MeHg+ in invertebrates is scanty. Here,… read more here.
