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...

Iron From Melting Ice Sheets Could Have Major Impact On Global Warming
2014-05-22 01:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
RedOrbit: A newly-discovered source of oceanic bioavailable iron could have a major impact on our understanding of marine food chains and global warming. A UK team, including researchers from the University of Bristol, has found that summer meltwaters from ice sheets are rich in iron, which will have important implications on phytoplankton growth. Their findings are reported today in Nature Communications. It is well known that bioavailable iron boosts phytoplankton growth in many of the Earths oceans....
Iron from Melting Ice Sheets May Buffer Effects of Global Warming
2014-05-21 21:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World: A newly discovered source of iron from melting ice sheets may help buffer the effects of global warming. It is well known among the scientific community that bioavailable iron boosts phytoplankton growth in many of Earth's oceans. What possibly some don't realize is that phytoplankton capture carbon in the atmosphere, thus combating global warming's harmful carbon emissions. The plankton also feed into the bottom of the oceanic food chain, thus providing a food source for marine animals. A...
