Mercury Content and Pools in Complex Polycyclic Soils From a Mountainous Area in Galicia (NW Iberian Peninsula)

Atmospheric mercury (Hg) usually tends to accumulate in the upper horizons of soils. However, the physico-chemical characteristics of some soils, as well as pedogenetic processes, past climate changes, or soil degradation processes, can lead to a redistribution of mercury through the soil profile.
