Thank you for your flattering if inaccurate opinion.
Before you can assess the feasibility of any sealing idea you need to
know what the source pressure will do as the flow rate is reduced and
the shear strength of the walls of the passage you are trying to block.
I have a nasty
If I understand correctly, the proposal is to maintain or renew existing
permafrost or ice plugs and covers
The existence of a prior cap indicates clearly that the seal is viable.
It's not necessary to contain a pressure, as the clathrate pressure balances
that of sea water. The challenge is to
Dr. Salter,
This came through yesterday and your cloud brighting effort came to mind.

What would you think of spicing up the cloud brighting with this (*
dimethylsulfid)* compound? I could see the bilge water

I agree that small drops of dimethyl sulphide make excellent cloud
condensation nuclei because I have complete trust in the work of James
Lovelock who suggested it. However I am trying to avoid the need for
any replenishment of consumables in mid-ocean. I would not be nearly as
