Mercury Stable Isotope Investigations in San Francisco Bay: Summary of Results and Proposal for Additional Work Joel D Blum, Principle Investigator Gretchen E Gehrke, Graduate Student RMP Meeting, 7 June 2010
Proposal: Continued Investigation of Mercury Stable Isotopes in San Francisco Bay • Hg isotope analyses of reactive inorganic mercury extracted from sediments. • 2. Hg isotope analyses of sediment from additional sample sites in the Sacramento • River Delta region. • 3. Hg isotope analysis of large-volume urban run-off samples. • 4. Hg isotope analysis of co-located samples of dry deposition, wet deposition and • gaseous elemental mercury at a single location in the Bay area. • 5. Hg isotope analyses of sport fish and sea-bird egg shells to gain information on • Hg sources to these organisms.
