“…Aquatic birds typically have the highest exposures to environmental Hg contamination (Ackerman et al 2016), although terrestrial birds, like riparian songbirds, may also bioaccumulate MeHg to potentially harmful levels (Cristol et al, 2008;Ackerman et al, 2019;Cristol and Evers, 2020). Within the Arctic, aquatic birds are primarily exposed to elevated levels of MeHg in pelagic environments (Provencher et al, 2014a;Braune et al, 2015;Peck et al, 2016;Burnham et al, 2018;Albert et al, 2019Albert et al, , 2021, coastal shorelines, and wetland foraging habitats (Hargreaves et al, 2011;McCloskey et al, 2013;Perkins et al, 2016;Sun et al, 2019).…”
