Serving Waynesboro, Augusta County & the Shenandoah Valley

Slide presentation describing microcosm “shake and bake” experiments from Chesapeake Biological Laboratory to quantify total mercury (Hg) and methylmercury (MeHg) release during sediment resuspension. Methods include magnetic-stirrer resuspension for varying durations, DOC amendments, water sampling, and sediment analyses. Results summarize TSS responses, initial sediment Hg/MeHg data, and photos of microcosms and sampling.
