Urban green infrastructure fails to mitigate exposure to mercury with increasing pollution levels: evidence from corvids

2025-06-18

Abstract excerpt

The urban landscape acts as a novel habitat providing opportunities for certain species. However, populations of these so-called urban winners are constantly exposed to environmental contaminants, among which mercury (Hg) is perceived as a significant health concern for both wildlife and humans. While absorption of Hg is primarily related to its environmental level, it could be theoretically mitigated by near-natu...
