The Juneau Icefield is the laboratory for a study revealing that the remnants of fossil fuels in glaciers may be changing the source of food for marine life down the food chain. University of Alaska Southeast Associate Professor Eran Hood is the second author and led the fieldwork for the study, to be published in the international journal Nature Geoscience in March 2012 and published on-line this week.
