8:55 - Breakout intro and discussions (pick a topic and join a labeled table for discussions

Ocean alkalinity enhancement (Tables 1-2)
Ocean afforestation (Tables 3-4)
Iron Fertilization (Tables 5-6)
Blue Carbon (Tables 7-8)
Artificial upwelling (Table 9-10)
Storage permanence (Table 11)
Other (Table 12)

Breakout Questions (these will be posted on the white board at each table)

What is the state of knowledge with respect to the quantitative contribution this method could make toward carbon removal?
What tools/studies are needed to reduce uncertainty on that quantitative range?
What hands-on research is most urgently needed on the topic overall and where are likely funding sources?
Are there "knock-out criteria" that can be identified that would suggest a solution will not be viable?
What are the key ethical/community-based questions and stakeholders that should be incorporated in ONET research in general and with respect to the method being discussed at the table?
