Redox oscillation affecting mercury mobility from highly contaminated coastal sediments: a mesocosm incubation experiment

Mercury (Hg) mobility at the sediment-water interface was investigated during a laboratory incubation experiment on highly contaminated sediments (up to 23 μg g−1) of the Gulf of Trieste. Undisturbed sediment was collected in front of the Isonzo River mouth, which inflows Hg-rich suspended material...
