1. Mercury accumulation in lake sediments on different time scales – the influence of algal primary production
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskapAbstract : The aim of this work is to test the proposed approach of algal scavenging as a driver of sediment mercury (Hg) on different time scales and to gain a better understanding of the mechanisms of Hg accumulation in lake sediments.
