Ron et al., Sev provided us a review of his concept around a year ago and my primary concerns with nutrient flacks are with the open water release of the nutrients as: a) Pathogenic species would be fed along with non-pathogenic species which would have profound implications for both humans an

Michael, Ron et al., Ron, thanks for the encomium. I would welcome feedback on both my buoyant flakes and ice shield conceptual technologies, particularly so if it be constructively critical, as it would be almost unbelievable had I got every bit and implication right. In reply to Michael’s ob

Sev et al., The primary limiting factors your approach seems to have at this time is the lack of even a small/pond scale demonstration of slow release nutrified flakes. Showing how your approach can be field testing as to its effects on the biology, albedo and other critical issues is step one.
