Who We Are
Exploring Ocean Iron Solutions (ExOIS) is a not-for-profit non-commercial consortium of experts that strives to foster partnerships for scientific research, as well as with public and private partners for funding. We strive to establish best practices and governance for the study of ocean iron fertilization as one of many steps that will be needed to remove atmospheric CO2 over the coming decades. We are an independent program hosted by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, a 501(c) (3) non-profit.
