Bioaccumulation of Methylmercury in Wood Frogs and Spotted Salamanders in Vermont Vernal Pools

Dartmouth Superfund Program researchers Kate Buckman and Vivien Taylor are co-authors of a study that “…demonstrates that vernal pools are important hotspots where amphibians bioaccumulate MeHg, which may then be transferred to terrestrial ecosystems.” The paper, Bioaccumulation of Methylmercury in Wood Frogs and Spotted Salamanders in Vermont Vernal Pools, is published in Ecotoxicology.
