Congratulations to Delphine Lannuzel who has been awarded a Discovery Early Career Researcher Award for 3 years from 2012 for her project “The role of Antarctic sea ice as a natural ocean fertiliser”.

“This project will assess the importance of sea ice as a natural fertiliser in the climatically important polar region. The knowledge gained will aid climate modellers and Governmental policy-makers concerned with the commercial use of ocean iron fertilisation as an attempt to reduce human-induced atmospheric carbon dioxide and gain carbon credits”.
