Summary: This study investigates the seasonality of mercury concentration in olive tree foliage. The study found that the concentration of mercury in stems was significantly lower than in foliage in both sites. The highest foliage mercury concentration was in late winter-early spring and the lowest was in summer. Additionally, olive fruits also had low mercury concentrations. The study suggests that mercury pollution can be studied through olive trees and recommends spring sampling to assess the trees' susceptibility to mercury uptake.

Summary: This study reproduces the spatial distribution of atmospheric selenium concentrations and wet deposition fluxes on a global scale using GEOS-Chem. The dominant sources of atmospheric selenium concentration and deposition are found to be anthropogenic emissions in most Northern Hemisphere continental regions, while natural sources dominate in other areas. The factors controlling the wet deposition flux of atmospheric selenium, namely concentration and precipitation, are analyzed in detail using two regions as case studies (mainland China and the continental United States). The study also investigates the impacts of future emission changes in China on atmospheric selenium deposition and its sensitivity to emissions and precipitation.

Summary: This study investigates the variation of mercury concentration and pools in soils collected from Pinus pinaster stands along a coastal-inland transect in SW Europe. The results show that total mercury concentration is higher in the organic subhorizons compared to the mineral soil, and it decreases with depth. The climatic factors, particularly precipitation, along the transect have a significant influence on the variation of total mercury concentration in the organic subhorizons.

Summary: National monitoring networks have reported an increase in ammonium (NH4+) deposition, dominating inorganic nitrogen deposition across most of the United States. Atmospheric deposition of fixed nitrogen has significant environmental consequences, including acidification and eutrophication. In the study site, long-range transport via in-cloud scavenging tended to play a stronger role in shaping w-NH4+ patterns.

Summary: This study investigated the changes in nitrogen dioxide (NO2) air pollution levels and their disparities in California, U.S. during the pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The results showed a decrease in NO2 concentrations, especially in urban and high-traffic areas. However, socially vulnerable populations still experienced higher levels of NO2 exposure. The study suggests that reducing NO2 disparities, particularly racial inequity, can be achieved through continued regulatory actions targeting traffic-related NOx emissions.

Summary: This study investigates the chemical composition and oxidative potential of PM10 particles in the Po Valley, Italy, and demonstrates the impact of high levels of atmosphere ammonia. The rural area had significantly higher ammonia concentrations compared to the urban site, resulting in higher levels of secondary inorganic aerosol. Although the SIA components did not contribute significantly to the PM10 oxidative reactivity, they were correlated with the oxidative potential measurements. This suggests that the contribution of SIA to PM oxidative toxicity cannot be ignored.
