N2  - Growing awareness of the impending effects on climate of increasing levels of CO2 in the atmosphere has generated wide debate at an international level that is directed towards a variety of CO2 control strategies. Of these, direct disposal of liquid CO2 into the deep ocean offers a number of potential advantages: the oceanic reservoir is very large, and has the ability to buffer chemical changes caused by CO2 addition. In addition, time scales of mixing in the ocean are very long. This paper reviews some of the scientific evidence associated with this emerging form of global engineering, and discusses some of the important concepts in terms of the global carbon cycle.
