Safety

Safety first. Science always.

We design short, bounded OIF trials with conservative dosing, strong monitoring, and transparent reporting.

Safety of OIF

Safety is the first requirement. We aim to mimic natural iron inputs without overshoot through careful siting, low doses, and rigorous controls.

  • Conservative dosing: trace iron additions modeled against natural variability
  • Verified monitoring: independent sampling and cross-lab checks
  • Ecosystem safeguards: focus on export-prone phytoplankton; QA/QC on blooms and food webs
  • Data transparency: open methods and shared datasets for verification
  • Governance alignment: adhere to best-practice guidance and permitting pathways

Stop conditions

Predefined thresholds trigger pause or stop, ensuring trials remain reversible and protective of ecosystems.

Transparency

We share protocols, data summaries, and independent reviews to enable external verification and trust.
