Greenland's Meltwater May Fertilize Fjords with Phosphorus

Christopher Intagliata, a dedicated reporter focusing on environmental issues in Greenland, dives into the surprising impact of melting glaciers. He reveals how Greenland's glacial rivers could release around 400,000 tons of phosphorus into the ocean, rivaling major rivers like the Mississippi and the Amazon. This nutrient influx could significantly boost marine life, especially phytoplankton. Intagliata also connects this phenomenon to historical events, illustrating its importance in the evolution of complex life on Earth.
