The urgent necessity of reducing greenhouse gas emissions is coupled with a pressing need for widespread implementation of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) techniques to limit the increase in mean global temperature to levels below 2 °C compared to pre-industrial times. One proposed CDR method, ocean al...
