Glacial melt pours iron into ocean, seeding algal blooms
2014-05-23 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Scientific American: A decade ago, a common hypothesis was that rivers and dust supplied the ocean with most of its iron. Since then, scientists have reported in several papers that icebergs and deep-sea hydrothermal vents also may be significant contributors. Scientists report in a new study this week that glacial melt may be funneling significant amounts of reactive iron into the ocean, where it may counter some of the negative effects of climate change by boosting algal blooms that capture carbon. The paper, published...
