25The impact of mercury (Hg) on human and ecological health has been known for decades. 26Although a treaty signed in 2013 by 147 nations regulates future large-scale mercury emissions, 27 legacy Hg contamination exists worldwide and small scale releases will continue. The fate of 28 elemental mercury, Hg(0), lost to the subsurface and its potential chemical transformation that 29 can lead to changes in speciation and mobility are poorly understood. Here we show that Hg (0)
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
