ÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï State Biologist Joins Tennessee, Toledo Colleagues to Study Arctic Climate Change Effects
In early February, scientists reported the hottest temperature on record in Antarctica: 65 degrees Fahrenheit. Studies show climate change is disproportionately affecting the poles, warming them faster than anywhere else on Earth, and raising questions about what kinds of changes we can expect in arctic ecosystems as temperatures rise. 
A ÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï biologist has teamed up with some colleagues in an inter-institutional effort to answer some of those questions.

ÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï State Chemist Follows up on Baseball Core Study, Refuting MLB Findings.
In 1901, the 16 Major League Baseball teams produced 455 home runs. Players were discouraged from attempting it. Nearly 120 years later, players couldn’t seem to help themselves, and MLB smashed all previous records. More homers might mean more exciting games, but some people question why the spike happened. A ÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï chemist thinks he has some clues about this unusual surge in home runs.
