New page proposals

No ingredient or product pages crossed the creation threshold from this batch alone. Two candidates are building:

Wild mushrooms (porcini) — braeuer2022 is the first high-quality paper in the corpus measuring Hg in edible mushrooms. The result (up to 20 µg/g DW) is substantially above background and warrants tracking. Flag for next encounter; threshold for a mushroom Hg page requires 2 more papers.

Seaweed/kelp contamination — hahn2022 (Salish Sea Cd at all sites) plus nepper-davidsen2023 (batch 13, NZ kelp) are now 2 papers on seaweed heavy metal contamination. One more paper crosses the threshold for an ingredient page.

Synthesis threads

Seaweed/kelp as a systematic Cd and As exposure pathway — new seeding

Batch 15 adds hahn2022-salish-seaweed-contaminants (Cd above international limits at all 43 Salish Sea sites; bull kelp mean 5.69 mg/kg DW Cd), combined with nepper-davidsen2023-kelp-biomass-composition-nz from batch 13 (NZ kelp, mean tAs 49 ppm DW, Cd 1.2 ppm DW). Two A-tier papers now document elevated Cd and As in Pacific-basin seaweed species. The existing promoted organoarsenical-inertness-assumption synthesis page covers the arsenosugar/iAs speciation question in seaweed; the Cd angle is distinct and not yet captured in any synthesis page. This is 2 of 4 criteria met (criterion 1 borderline at 2 sources; criterion 3 non-obvious — consumer seaweed products are often marketed without heavy metal characterization). Add to synthesis-proposals as a seeding entry.

Mining-impacted freshwater fish (promoted candidate — 3 of 4 criteria met)

berky2022-wildgame-lead-peru adds a dual-burden (game Pb + fish MeHg) finding from indigenous Amazonian communities, strengthening the cumulative exposure framing. The mechanism for Pb is ammunition fragmentation rather than ASGM, so it does not directly advance the ASGM multi-metal criterion. The synthesis thread remains at 3 of 4 criteria met; ASGM-plus-Pb/Cd paper still needed.
