Abstract:Mercury (Hg) is a well known global contaminant. 98% of atmosphere mercury exists in the form of Hg~0. Due to its chemical inertness, vaporizable nature and a low solubility in water, Hg~0 has a long atmospheric residence time of about 1 year, allows the long range atmospheric transport and has global distribution~([1~3]). Bargagli et al. discussed the biomagnification of mercury in an Antarctic marine coastal food web. In this paper, we report Hg concentrations and δ~(15)N in the fresh scats of four kind...
