This sequence of slides show monthly primary production maps from chlorophyll measurements for two years from NASA satellites downloaded from http://marine.rutgers.edu/opp/swf/Production/results/all2_swf.html If just10% of the unproductive blue area could be increased to the carbon productivity of the green area the annual carbon transfer would be over 8 Gigatonnes. We do not yet know how much could be retained but releasing nutrient rich water at 100 metres down will help.
