Demonstrates accurate profiling of methylmercury in sediment porewater, suggesting improved methods for mercury monitoring.

Abstract

Accurate quantification of sediment porewater methylmercury (MeHg) profiles is critical for understanding Hg fate/transport, bioaccumulation, and informing remediation design, yet direct porewater profiling remains challenging. Equilibrium-based passive samplers (EqPS) offer...
