Scientists have said that a controversial experiment has โ€œdampened hopesโ€ that dumping hundreds of tonnes of dissolved iron in the Southern Ocean can lessen global warming.The experiment involved โ€œfertilisingโ€ a 115-sqare-mile area of ocean with six tonnes of dissolved iron. As expected, this stimulated growth of tiny planktonic algae or phytoplankton. However, the scientists did not count on these phytoplankton being eaten by tiny crustacean zooplankton.
