Dis-Crediting Ocean Fertilization
Abstract
never exhausted in surface waters, and phytoplankton biomass is less than expected. Martin (6, 7) suggested that it is the scarcity of biologically available iron in these high-nutrient, low-chlorophyll (HNLC) regions that makes it impossible for the phytoplankton to use the excess N and P. He also recognized that atmospheric dust from land is an important source of iron for the sea and that HNLC regions receive a relatively small dust flux. Furthermore, he noted that ice core records of atmospheric CO2 and dust concentrations over the past 180,000 years are anticorrelated: when dust was high, CO2 was low. This is consistent with the notion that during the arid glacial periods, dust transport was greater, more iron was available, and the biological pump delivered more CO2 to the deep sea. This “iron hypothe

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
