Before you scroll away, however, consider how a volcano - fertilized North Pacific Ocean phenomenally restored Pacific
salmon runs in 2010 - to levels not seen since the early 1930's - and how this restoration squares with conventional wisdom about «iron seeding» being too hazardous to experiment with as a potential geo - engineering method.Following the late August of 2008 Aleutian volcano eruption, which spewed iron -
rich ash over the North Pacific Ocean, the cohort of 2009
salmon (which «ran» in British Columbia streams in August of 2010) produced a spawning run much larger than what those same streams hosted 100 years ago.
