The aim of this research was to assess the impact of hydrotechnical works within the riverbed and riparian zone on the mobility of mercury in soil and its outflow to the river and the sea. Deepening and reconstruction of the riverbed or the cutting of reeds, influenced the fate of mercury in the river system. However, only activitis that disturbed the riperian zone increased mobilization of Hg in soils. Hg transformations in these places were controled by inflow of fresh organic matter in soil and sediments as well as by oxidation-reduction potential. In areas where reducing conditions occurred, mercury released from the soil was incorporated into the sediment. However, in areas where oxidizing conditions prevailed in the sediment, mercury flowing out of the soil occurred mainly in dissolved form and most of it was transported downstream from where it could reach the sea.
