Marine scientist John Martin hypothesized that iron stored in ocean water can have a great effect on climate change. ...
Martin developed his hypothesis to solve a mystery of ocean ecology. ... The two radioisotopes should exist in a constant ratio in ocean water. ... Phytoplankton blooms must have sunlight; therefore they live on the surface of the ocean. Carbon dioxide from the atmosphere dissolves in the ocean, and the organisms use it for photosynthesis. ... The amount of money needed to constantly fertilize the ocean is impractical. ... Even if the carbon was buried deep enough, it is possible that ocean currents could cause it to resurface at a later point in time.
