@OrmeStephan @_david_ho_ If you grow seaweed (unless it's benthic with no material in surface waters), the change in color will have some albedo effect. https://t.co/nGthE9Xig1 Especially if you upwell to grow seaweed there will be other side-effects too e

stoichemistry in elements in production in oceans is variable- factor to consider when scaling up carbon sequestration by ocean production.
100–900 gigatons CO2 must be removed from the atmosphere by 2100. Ocean afforestation, CDR through basin-scale seaweed farming in the open ocean, is seen as a key component of the marine portfolio. https://t.co/awDrwIpdLp https://t.co/ezGmHmwRQ5

@MTimC1 @ed_hawkins You'd have to be careful to ensure carbon actually ended up in the deep oceans, and that the secondary effects on nutrient availability etc. did not result in more emissions. This is a cautionary tale: https://t.co/p5BJ4ZcMun

Seaweed/climate thread...geoengineering is tough to get right given all the complex (oft compensating) feedbacks occurring in nature - these are amplified too!

@AlexSteffen @JHWeissmann @Peters_Glen land and sea afforestation would have to increase by .0033% to consume 5 gigaton/yr by 2050, or .0066% by 2080 to meet Glen's targets. Seems rather urgent that we stop and reverse deforestation. https://t.co/ykY7lAZP
