The Third Pole (Qinghai Tibet Plateau and its adjacent areas) is a unique giant tectonic landform unit on Earth, which plays an important role in the global (or regional) biogeochemical cycling of trace elements. Mercury, as a global pollutant, can enter fragile ecosystems in the third pole through long-distance atmospheric transport, and will have significant impacts on the cryosphere environment and human health. Based on the Collaborative Monitoring Network for Atmospheric Pollutants and Cryosphere Changes (APCC), we mainly study the relationship between mercury pollutants and the third pole climate environment and cryosphere changes.
This article provides a relatively systematic mercury dataset for the Third Pole region, mainly including atmospheric (2 stations), aerosol (9 stations), precipitation (16 stations), glaciers (12 including snow pits, glacier surface snow, ice dust, and ice cores), soil (50 sampling points), river and lake water (53 sampling locations), ice cores (1 branch), lake cores (8 branches), and mercury isotope ratios of some samples. The release of this dataset can provide basic data support for interdisciplinary research in cryosphere science, atmospheric science, soil science, hydrological science, and environmental science.
