Can seaweed farming in the tropics contribute to climate change through emission of short-lived halocarbons?
Volatile halocarbons form a major source of halogen radicals in the atmosphere, which are involved in the catalytic destruction of ozone. Studies show that marine algae release halocarbons, with 70% of global bromoform produced by marine algae (Carpenter et al., 2000). The role of halocarbons in alg...
