This project studies mercury biogeochemistry in the Arctic, focusing on how mercury accumulates in the food chain and its effects on indigenous populations. It examines microbial interactions that influence mercury transformations in various Arctic environments.
The contamination of the Arctic with mercury is of increasing concern and yet our knowledge of mercury biogeochemistry in this environment is rudimentary.
We know that mercury reaches the Arctic from sources in lower latitudes by long distance atmospheric transport of elemental mercury and that it is deposited as inorganic mercury following oxidation in the atmosphere, most notably during atmospheric mercury depletion events.
We also know that the Arctic food chain is contaminated with the neuro…
