at different points during the reproductive saga.
I'm a plant growing aquaticist — who does
NOT use CO2
fertilization but whose tank is overrun with plants anyway — mainly because I use a wet - dry filtered reef tank with a closed top where the water is mixed with air in large quantities in the sump keeping the amount of CO2 and O2
at optimal levels.
These are all things that climate change model should take into account to arrive
at better predictions of the future, but the full effects of this nitrogen

Note 1: the NAS study includes ocean iron
fertilization, which I haven't included in the above graphic because «previous studies nearly all agree that deploying ocean iron
fertilization at climatically relevant levels poses risks that outweigh potential benefits.»
The point is that,
not only will the biosphere expand by CO2
fertilization, but also the species, whether of plants or bacteria or phytoplankton, that fare better
at higher atmospheric CO2 because they themselves are better
at using it, those species will expand
at the expense of those that don't like CO2 that much.

at the same time and amount wrt human fossil fuel burning.

fertilization to carbon credits was a sterling example of how
not to govern climate engineering, and I am therefore concerned to see a closely linked organization
at the center of a meeting on governance.
And taken globally, increases in tropical forest carbon may be
at least partly explained
not by carbon
fertilization, but by a recovery of carbon after past disturbances such as fire (both natural and anthropogenic) and land clearing by humans even centuries earlier - a factor that will reduce sink strength over time as forests recover.
Nevertheless, in view of the serious risks we are presently taking with our global climate, I feel that considering iron
fertilization as a possible means for purposeful co2 sequestration can
not be entirely dismissed
at this point.»
Research performed
at Stanford and Oregon State Universities suggests that ocean
fertilization may
not be an effective method of reducing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, a major contributor to global warming.
However, according to Professor Rosemary Rayfuse, an expert in International Law and the Law of the Sea
at the University of New South Wales, Australia, who also attended the Woods Hole meeting, ocean
fertilization projects are
not currently approved under any carbon credit regulatory scheme and the sale of offsets or credits from ocean
fertilization on the unregulated voluntary markets is basically nothing short of fraudulent.
92.2 Gt - C = 70 (preindustrial) +22.2 Gt - C to 80 Gt - C = 60 (preindustrial) +20 Gt - C while the absorption by terrestrial vegetation went up from 122.6 Gt - C = 120 (preindustrial) + 2.6 Gt - C to 123 Gt - C = 108.9 (preindustrial) + 14.1 Gt - C; the change from 2.6 to 14.1 reflects a reassessment of the
fertilization by the additional CO2 in the air since the 277 ppm assumed for the «preindustrial», but is still a factor 2 or 3 lower than the observations between 1960 and 2010 related by the papers of Graven & Keeling, Myneni, Donohue, Pretzsch, Hansen and Sun referenced
at the end of card
n ° 1 (footnote 19).
say it has been predicted that «the average temperature in the semiarid northwest portion of China in 2050 will be 2.2 °C higher than it was in 2002,» and they report that based on the observed results of their study, this increase in temperature «will lead to a significant change in the growth stages and water use of winter wheat,» such that «crop yields
at both high and low altitudes will likely increase,» by 2.6 %
at low altitudes and 6.0 %
at high altitudes... Even without the benefits of the aerial
fertilization effect and the anti-transpiration effect of the ongoing rise in the air's CO2 content, the increase in temperature that is predicted by climate models for the year 2050, if it ever comes to pass, will likely lead to increases in winter wheat production in the northwestern part of China,
not the decreases that climate alarmists routinely predict.»

at Stanford and Oregon State Universities, published in the Journal of Geophysical Research, suggests that ocean
fertilization may

Don't forget that Dr. Idso has been looking
at the CO2
fertilization effect for decades and that's
at least part of why the bristlecones were studied in the first place.
