So i didnt want to change it on your page because it just isnt that big of a deal, but the paragraph

"Vladimir Vernadsky was a geochemist and mineralogist from the Soviet Union. He was awarded the Stalin Prize in 1943 for his popular hypothesis on the Biosphere with Eduward Suess’. Vernadsky was the scientist who coined the term biogeochemistry, which is the study of physical, geological, chemical, and biological processes that govern the natural environment and the is the backbone of nutrient cycling. Many scientists have used different variations of the term."

Seems phrased strangely. I think this just sounds better. I just rearranged the paragraph to flow differently. Use whichever you want. Just my opinion:

Vladimir Vernadsky was a geochemist and mineralogist from the Soviet Union. He was the scientist who coined the term biogeochemistry, which is the study of physical, geological, chemical, and biological processes that govern the natural environment. While many scientists have used different variations of the term, this scientific discipline is the backbone of nutrient cycling. In 1943, he was awarded the Stalin Prize for his popular hypothesis on the Biosphere with Eduward Suess’.
