The article explores the chemical makeup of rivers and lakes, focusing on the minerals found in rocks and gases released by volcanoes. The researchers analyzed the composition of these bodies of water to understand the sources of different elements. They found that rocks and volcanic emissions contribute to the chemical content of rivers and lakes, affecting their overall composition.
