| contents | The Global Observation System for Mercury dataset for mercury stable isotope signatures in environmental media. Sonke, Jeroen E Kwon, Sae Yun Demers, Jason D Zheng, Wang Cho, Moonkyoung Lee, Hoin Williams, Demetra Lepak, Ryan F Janssen, Sarah E The natural variability in the abundance ratios of stable isotopes of mercury (Hg), which collectively forms its isotopic composition, provides information on Hg sources and biogeochemical pathways. Modern mass spectrometry has allowed for measurement of Hg isotope ratios across atmospheric, aquatic, and terrestrial compartments, often at trace levels. Since realizing the utility of Hg isotope ratios, hundreds of studies have generated a wealth of data that is increasingly challenging to summarize and interpret for individual scientists. Arising as a complimentary initiative under the Global Observation System for Mercury (GOSM) that supports the Minamata Convention on Mercury, we describe the establishment of the iGOSM Hg isotope dataset. In its present form, iGOSM has > 11,000 data entries from 190 studies, which together with metadata on sample type, geographical location, Hg concentration, and other environmental and ecological parameters, provide a long-needed catalogue of knowledge gathered by and for the Hg isotope community. We introduce the structure of iGOSM and a standardization rubric to promote global consistency in measurement and data reporting. |
