Exploring the Quaternary mercury cycle - ORA - Oxford University Research Archive
Exploring how climate-driven processes impact biogeochemical cycles is critical for understanding how discrete components of the Earth system have interacted through time. Mercury (Hg) is a toxic metal released into the atmosphere as a result of natural processes and more recently by human
