A fascinating study with tremendous value if the author's conclusion proves true through successive studies. This study analyzes life in American river valleys over time and the author develops a mathematical formula to explain that ebb and flow. Why is this important? Since his formula only uses the physical size and shape of the valley, if it works for both warm and cold climates, it may be extendable to other planets to predict whether similar type valleys on those planets once harbored life. This would save time and money in further planetary exploration or even further exploration into remote regions of our own planet. A more detailed review is below.
