I like the organizational scheme. The article is ordered and the figures add a lot to the content. There are a few spelling errors in the first paragraph (stabilise, utilising, and fertilisation). The s's should be z's. "Iron is a trace element in ocean" should say "the ocean". The paragraph starting "In fact, fertilization is an important ..." seems to contain a lot of interesting information that might not be completely on topic for ocean storage. I don't think a reduction in sperm whale populations, for example, should be included. The sentence "carbon is only considered "sequestered" when it is deposited in the ocean floor where it can be retained for millions of years" I think should be changed to talk about long-term storage, not millions of years because there are sequestration methods with time-scales shorter than a million years, specifically on this page, deep ocean injection only remains on the ocean floor for a time scale of tens of thousands of years. Based on the research our group has been doing, this statement contradicts a lot of what we say about deep ocean injection. Maybe talk more about the negative environmental impacts of iron fertilization. "1000 tons of urea was injected" should say urea were because tons is plural. The section on seaweed needs citations.

Overall, I think the article is really well organized and researched. You pull nicely from a wide-variety of sources to make a cohesive piece. The biggest issue that I couldn't comment on for every mistake is grammar and spelling. I think this will be a really solid article.Ariel plantz (talk) 01:43, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
