Stable isotopes unveil ocean transport of legacy mercury into Arctic food webs

Abstract Anthropogenic activities have caused large-scale mercury (Hg) pollution in the Arctic reaching toxic levels, but knowledge of sources and pathways is sparse. Here, we present Hg stable isotope data in peat and key aquatic predatory species collected across Greenland. We observe distinct reg...
