But I think fertilizing vast sterile ocean with iron and creating more food for ocean life [and consequently more food from humans] is a better way to go - you using CO2 for a good purpose rather just storing somewhere - and storing CO2 in gas / ice form has some possibility being suddenly released some way, whereas CO2 in skeleton of tiny creatures most likely ends up as limestone.

When we think of the ocean, we may think of its power, its wave and the magnificent creatures living it in.

To point out just a couple of things: — oceans warming slower (or cooling slower) than lands on long - time trends is absolutely normal, because water is more difficult both to warm or to cool (I mean, we require both a bigger heat flow and more time); at the contrary, I see as a non-sense theory (made by some serrist, but don't know who) that oceans are storing up heat, and that suddenly they will release such heat as a positive feedback: or the water warms than no heat can be considered ad «stored» (we have no phase change inside oceans, so no latent heat) or oceans begin to release heat but in the same time they have to cool (because they are losing heat); so, I don't feel strange that in last years land temperatures for some series (NCDC and GISS) can be heating up while oceans are slightly cooling, but I feel strange that they are heating up so much to reverse global trend from slightly negative / stable to slightly positive; but, in the end, all this is not an evidence that lands» warming is led by UHI (but, this effect, I would not exclude it from having a small part in temperature trends for some regional area, but just small); both because, as writtend, it is normal to have waters warming slower than lands, and because lands» temperatures are often measured in a not so precise way (despite they continue to give us a global uncertainity in TT values which is barely the instrumental's one)-- but, to point out, HadCRU and MSU of last years (I mean always 2002 - 2006) follow much better waters» temperatures trend; — metropolis and larger cities temperature trends actually show an increase in UHI effect, but I think the sites are few, and the covered area is very small worldwide, so the global effect is very poor (but it still can be sensible for regional effects); but I would not run out a small warming trend for airport measurements due mainly to three things: increasing jet planes traffic, enlarging airports (then more buildings and more asphalt — if you follow motor sports, or simply live in a town / city, you will know how easy they get very warmer than air during day, and how much it can slow night - time cooling) and overall having airports nearer to cities (if not becoming an area inside the city after some decade of hurban growth, e.g. Milan - Linate); — I found no point about UHI in towns and villages; you will tell me they are not large cities; but, in comparison with 20-40-60 years ago when they were «countryside», many small towns and villages have become part of larger hurban areas (at least in Europe and Asia) so examining just larger cities would not be enough in my opinion to get a full view of UHI effect (still remembering that it has a small global effect: we can say many matters are due to UHI instead of GW, maybe even that a small part of measured GW is due to UHI, and that GW measurements are not so precise to make us able to make good analisyses and predictions, but not that GW is due to UHI).

As these SRM techniques are also largely unproven, require a mostly peaceful world to be deployed in, require the bending of judiciary systems, may backfire climatologically and do «nothing» [considering ocean temperature feedbacks they actually do do something] to abate ocean acidification — the simple notion that it is cheap [again, policy thinking] makes geoengineering so dangerous, possibly undermining cooperation behind the world's mitigation attempts, under the UNFCCC, the hard route that we need to go anyway * [as CDR geoengineering lacks the potential to get carbon concentrations back to safe levels, also for marine life — and isn't much cheaper / is costlier anyway].

Here is a finding from last year that does indicate that deep ocean temperatures are indeed rising: http://www.physsci.uci.edu/psnews/?id=159 but it is curious to take reassurance in the thought that 10 ft under the ocean surface everything is fine when we don't live there.

And using the oceans as a sink causes acidification that scientists now think may cause the most rapid and disruptive change to life in the seas since catastrophic events tens of millions of years ago (see Ocean acidification due to increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide, Royal Society, August 2005 and The other CO2 problem, New Scientist, August 2006).
