Scott Nixon - Narragansett Bay’s Health
Scott Nixon, Professor of Oceanography, University of Rhode Island Graduate School of Oceanography - Aired 1/12/07

One of the nation’s leading experts on systems ecology, who has been studying the bay for over 30 years, is bucking conventional wisdom with some of his analysis of the bay’s problems, and he explains why on this show. Scott Nixon discusses new research on pollution and climate change, and explains how, despite our best intentions to clean the bay, we may be spending millions of dollars chasing, well… a red herring.
