Mercury in a Greenland Ice Sheet: Evidence of Recent Input by Man

The increased mercury content in a Greenland ice sheet over the last several decades suggests the dissemination of this element about the earth's atmosphere through the activities of man. The mercury content in the atmosphere appears to result primarily from the degassing of the earth's cr...
