Abstract
With terrestrial resources exploited beyond optimum levels, greater attention is being given to increased utilization of oceans. A recent area of interest in oceans is to undertake artificial fertilization of ocean waters to enhance productivity and exploit the positive outcomes from such geo-engineering manipulations. India’s first scientific attempt to explore this idea is through the “LOHAFEX”- iron fertilization experiment conducted in the southern Atlantic by a group of oceanographers led by Dr S.W.A. Naqvi the former director of CSIR-National Institute of Oceanography
