| Popis: | Relative to volcanic sites in Iceland and Hawaii the Hg distribution ratio soil: air around Mt. Erebus (Ross Island, U.S. Antarctica) is anomously low. Air values for all three areas are similar. Differences are a reflection of extremely low soil levels at Antarctic sample sites. This condition appears to arise from the paucity of vegetation and lower degree of bio-concentration among Antarctic biota. |
