Slide presentation summarizing mechanistic source studies for mercury in the South River (July 2007). Objectives include ranking THg sources at Basic Park and Plant reach and defining how bioavailable Hg is released from floodplain soils and bed sediments. Methods include porewater and centrifuge samples, extractions, ultrafiltration, groundwater monitoring, amended flux chambers and methylmercury surveys. Key findings note gravel-bed and hotspot dissolved Hg inputs and a limited groundwater contribution.
