Mercury isotope evidence for Arctic summertime re-emission of mercury from the cryosphere

Mercury isotope evidence for Arctic summertime re-emission of mercury from the cryosphere

Arctic warming thaws permafrost, leading to enhanced soil mercury transport to the Arctic Ocean. Mercury isotope signatures in arctic rivers, ocean and atmosphere suggest that permafrost mercury is buried in marine sediment and not emitted to the global atmosphere
