Abstract: | "The spatial and temporal variations of total mercury (THg) and methylmercury (MeHg) concentrations (n = 120, respectively) in water and sediments of the Yangsuri lacustrine wetland in Korea were measured. The average concentrations of THg and MeHg in surface water were 2.04 +/- 1.97 and 0.05 +/- 0.05 ng L(-1), respectively. The concentrations of THg and MeHg in sediments ranged from 1.28 to 85.83 and |
