“…10b,c). Similar uniformity of Hg(II) or total Hg in the upper 10 cm of sediment has been observed in other coastal systems (Varekamp et al, 2000;Sunderland et al, 2004;Choe et al, 2004), and, in many cases, it can be attributed to the mixing and homogenization of sediment particles by the within-sediment migration of benthic infauna (Benninger et al, 1979). Profiles of Hg(II) in filtered pore water were less homogeneous, but measured concentrations and the K D of Hg(II) varied by only 2-fold or less with depth at each station (Fig.…”

“…Detectable levels (0.2 to 1.5 ng Hg/g) were found in 70% of B2 and B3 samples (including sediment cores) and accounted for 0.03-0.4% (average: 0.14%) of the THg contents. The proportions of MeHg to THg agreed with the values reported in other works (Bloom et al, 1999;Sunderland et al, 2004;Canário et al, 2005). As shown in Table 3, the MeHg concentrations in 9 sediments from Victoria Harbour were comparable to those from the Polish coast and San Francisco Bay, but still higher than those from the South Florida Estuaries, the Malaysian coast and the Anadyr Estuary.…”

“…Some studies showed that the nearshore seawater is favorable for DGM production and subsequent high Hg(0) emission (e.g., Andersson et al 2007). Therefore, many attentions have been paid to the Hg biogeochemistry in marginal seas in the past decade (e.g., Choe et al 2003;Conaway et al 2003;Gårdfeldt et al 2003;Sunderland et al 2004;Balcom et al 2008;Rothenberg et al 2008;Ci et al 2011b;Faganeli et al 2012;Tong et al 2012).…”
