A comprehensive mercury/methyl-mercury database* (1970-2009) is available and can be requested from the Everglades Foundation by contacting Dr. Melodie Naja at info@evergladesfoundation.org

This database also contains ancillary parameters connected to mercury methylation.

William Louda (PI/PD - Florida Atlantic University), Melodie Naja (Everglades Foundation), Matthew C. Harwell (Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge) and Donatto Surratt (NationalPark Service).
