Abstract: The co-accumulation and close interactions of climate-friendly organic carbon and neurotoxic mercury in coastal ecosystems show that nature-based solutions to the climate crisis can alter the global mercury cycle and risk. Nature-based mitigation and adaptation strategies should therefore consider the carbon–mercury nexus to maximize sustainability goals.
