Mercury threatens environmental and human health. The competing bacterial processes of MeHg production and consumption control MeHg concentrations in the environment. Riverbank samples were incubated under various conditions with 14C-MeHg and the rates of demethylation and the relative proportions of 14CO2 and 14CH 4 determined. Methylation was determined using 203Hg. Wet soils exhibited oxidative demethylation, under aerobic and anaerobic conditions whereas dry soils displayed only the reductive path. The induction of the reductive path was almost immediate after drying, while re-establishment of conditions conducive to the oxidative path required several weeks before demethylation became oxidative. Hg methylation occurred only anaerobically, but soils held under oxic conditions for months regained the methylation ability rapidly when anoxia was restored. Hydrologic changes in riverbanks greatly affect the fate of Hg, but the kinetics vary greatly depending on the history of flooding and drying, which may drastically affect MeHg transport.
