(Photo: Robert Spencer) A Florida State University scientist has helped uncover through a multidecadal study how changing water chemistry in Arctic rivers could impact the entire planet. New research published in Nature Geoscience by FSU Earth, Ocean & Atmospheric Science Professor Robert Spencer and a multinational team delves into how rivers in the Arctic are responding to the warming climate, how the region's chemistry is shifting due to climate change and other natural processes and how these changes are influencing the intricate web of life both on land and in the oceans.
