3 iii ABSTRACT Biogeochemistry of Monomethyl Mercury in San Francisco Bay Estuary. (May 2002) Key-Young Choe, B.S., Pusan National University; M.S., Pusan National University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Gary A. Gill An accurate cross-flow ultrafiltration technique was developed to isolate colloidal material for the determination of the phase speciation of monomethyl mercury (MeHg) in natural waters. This technique was applied to the estuarine waters of San Francisco Bay (SFB) to elucidate the importance of colloidal material in the biogeochemical cycling of MeHg in estuaries. Surface water samples were collected from the SFB estuary in September - October 2000 and March Mercury (Hg) (inorganic mercury + MeHg) and MeHg concentrations were measured in unfiltered, filter-passing (< 0.45 µm), colloidal (1 kda 0.45 µm), and (truly) dissolved (< 1 kda) fractions. Particulate Hg was the dominant phase species (88 ± 7 %, n = 29) in unfiltered water. Particulate MeHg averaged 52 ± 18 % (n = 29) of the total MeHg in unfiltered water. A significant portion of the filterpassing Hg (49 ± 17 %, n = 21) and MeHg (46 ± 18 %, n = 21) were associated with colloidal material. Strong correlations were observed between colloidal Hg and colloidal organic carbon, and between colloidal MeHg and colloidal organic carbon, in the filter-
4 iv passing fraction. These relationships suggest that organic material is an important transport medium of the filter-passing Hg and MeHg in the SFB estuary. Benthic flux chamber studies demonstrated that sediment-water exchange is an important source of MeHg in the SFB estuary and Delta regions. Fluxes for both Hg and MeHg were generally higher in May than in September or February. The Cosumnes River, Franks Tract, Franks Tract marsh, and Prospect Slough had higher MeHg fluxes (90 ± 18 pmol/m 2 /day, n = 6) compared with Little Holland and Sherman Island (5 ± 37 pmol/m 2 /day, n = 3) in May 2000 and May 2001, suggesting a MeHg source in the upper Delta region. Evidence of colloidally associated MeHg was observed in interstitial porewater of SFB Delta sediments. Both absolute and relative colloidal MeHg concentrations were significantly higher in upper (0 2 cm) sediments (32 ± 9 %, n = 8) compared to deeper sediments (18 ± 16 %, n = 16).
5 v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to express my deepest appreciation to Dr. Gary A. Gill, Chairman of the Advisory Committee, for allowing me an opportunity to study at Texas A&M University, and for his encouragement, guidance and support throughout the entire research. I would also like to thank my committee members, Dr. Peter H. Santschi for his endless patience while answering my many questions and his thoughtful insights into the science of my research, and Drs. Luis A. Cifuentes, Bruce E. Herbert and GCR Dr. Claudia L. Barton for their constructive suggestions and guidance for my dissertation. My sincerest appreciation goes to Ron Lehman for his incredible help in the field and in the laboratory over the last five years. There are numerous friends in the Laboratory for Oceanographic and Environmental Research. I wish to thank; Dr. Laodong Guo and Dr. Liang-Saw Cat Wen for their assistance in my early experimental work, Dr. Chin Chung Hung, Dr. Degui Tang, Dr. Kent Warnken, Seunghee Han and Kathy Schwehr for sharing their experiences and knowledge, Mary Howley, Sheri Shaklovitz, Miriam Barranco, Amy Bratcher, Becky Hunt, Aimee Jacobs, Lori Muller, Cris Schmidt, Adam Thurlow and Dr. Ivano Vassura for their assistance with sample collection. I am also indebted to Dr. Kenneth Coale, Wes Heim and John Haskins at the Moss Landing Marine Laboratory, Dr. Mark Stephenson, Amy Byington, Nisse Goldberg, Myah Gunn and Sean Mundell at the California Department of Fish and Game, and Dr. Chris Foe at the California Regional Water Quality Control Board. The
6 vi dissertation would not have been possible without their tremendous efforts in San Francisco Bay. This research was supported by grants from the CALFED Bay-Delta Mercury Project, the Texas Sea Grant, Texas Institute of Oceanography Graduate Fellowship, and Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. I also received financial support through teaching assistantships from Texas A&M University at Galveston. Special thanks to my friend, Dr. Joon-Hyung Ahn who provided encouragement to me throughout my research. Finally, this dissertation is dedicated to my parents, my wife, Jung-Ah, and two boys, Jeremy Seungwoo and Brian Jiwoo, thanks for their unconditional and infinite love, prayers and sacrifice over the last two thousand days.
