Abstract
Concentrations of mercury forms and ancillary parameters were investigated in size fractionated plankton samples and in water from Long Island Sound and the adjacent shelf. Samples were collected in three separate seasons (Spring, Summer, Fall) during 2014 to research the temporal trophic transfer dynamics of mercury and methylmercury into zooplankton and phytoplankton. For a complete list of measurements, refer to the full dataset description in the supplemental file 'Dataset_description.pdf'.
