Humans may be accelerating the rate at which organic matter decomposes in rivers and streams on a global scale, according to a new study. That could pose a threat to biodiversity in waterways around the world and increase the amount of carbon in Earth s atmosphere, potentially exacerbating climate change. The study is the first to combine a global experiment and predictive modeling to illustrate how human impacts to waterways may contribute to the global climate crisis.
More than 100 scientists collected samples from rivers in 40 countries to create a map showing how humans are altering waterways, causing them to emit more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere and contribute to climate change.
