Spatial distribution and risk assessments of mercury in topsoils of Central Asia
Central Asia is one of the largest arid areas on earth, yet little is known about the concentration levels and risks of mercury (Hg) in the soils of this region. In this study, extensive sampling of topsoils (0–10 cm) from representative landscapes was carried out over Central Asia (i.e., Tajikistan...
