Mercury pollution is a serious problem for Wisconsin, the Upper Midwest and the nation. That’s why UW-La Crosse scientists have been studying it in lakes and rivers of the Upper Midwest for decades.
They’ve contributed to the weight of evidence that shows what a serious problem the most toxic form of mercury — methylmercury — is for fish, wildlife and humans.
Now that research is being recognized statewide in the UW System initiative Knowledge Powers Wisconsin.
