The Everglades is an iconic ecosystem by virtue of its expanse; diversity of biota; and multiple international designations. Despite this, the Everglades has been subjected to multiple threats including: habitat loss, hydrologic alterations, invasive species; and altered water quality. Less well recognized as a threat to Everglades human use and wildlife populations is the toxic metal, mercury. This Volume focuses on sources of mercury to the Everglades from the late-1980’s when there was bewilderment as to why there were very high levels of mercury in the Everglades food web. Soon came the finding that mercury loadings from atmospheric deposition accounted for over 95% of total input to the Everglades which resulted in Florida conducting the most comprehensive mercury monitoring and modeling study performed to date. Topics discussed in this Volume include: (1) Why atmospheric deposition fluxes of mercury to the Everglades are amongst the highest in the U.S; (2) That these are overwhelmingly from sources outside of the U.S; (3) That mitigation strategies for resolvin | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | 关键词 | Hg Cycling; Atmospheric Hg; Aquatic Hg; Ecosystem Restoration; The Everglades; Atmospheric deposition; Mer | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-20070-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-20072-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-20070-1 | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019 |
