  • Potential Marine Iron Fertilization from Pacific Ocean Volcanic Systems Isabel LaRue This project researched which volcanic arcs along the Pacific Ocean have the potential to induce marine primary productivity through iron (Fe) fertilization. To do so, published datasets of volcanic geochemical composition, ash deposition rates, and ocean Fe-limited zones were compiled and analyzed to assess the potential for iron fertilization. Arcs along the coast of Alaska and Asia were determined to have the highest
