1) No taxonomic shifts could be detected when alkalinity additions (500 umol/kg, i.e. substantial!) are matched with immediate CO2 influx (i.e. pH excursions are minimal). Thus, the extra CO2 stored as bicarbonate in seawater did not negatively or positively affect the community.

(2/2) as olivine reactivity seems to be limited at weathering rates around -10 mol TA/m2/s in saturated CO2 solutions, or even 2 orders of magnitude Lower at ambient CO2, upgrading olivine to more reactive minerals may be required to achieve rapid CDR.
