This was surprising for a pollutant known to have a long residence time in the atmosphere; however conditions appeared to exist,in the Arctic that promoted this depletion of mercury (Hg).,This phenomenon is termed atmospheric mercury depletion,events (AMDEs) and its discovery has revolutionized our understanding of the cycling of Hg in Polar Regions while stimulating a significant amount of research to understand its,impact to this fragile ecosystem. Shortly after the discovery,was made in Canada, AMDEs were confirmed to occur,throughout the Arctic, sub-Artic and Antarctic coasts.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.5194/acp-8-1445-2008} (DOI).
