•	 Biological mercury hotspots are globally common and can be related to human-generated mercury releases to air, land, and water from multiple point and nonpoint source types.
•	 Fish samples from around the world regularly demonstrate mercury concentrations exceeding human health advisory guidelines based on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reference dose.
