The formation of mercury sulfide nanoparticles (β-HgS(s)nano) from inorganic mercury (HgII), dissolved sulfide, and marine DOM extracted from: Eastern Long Island Sound, Western Long Island Sound and at the shelf break of the North Atlantic Ocean was studied. All the DOM used led to the formation of...
