Yeah, if the temperature of their environment is in the right range, and if the pH is in the right range.

Hasn't been a problem yet when a Volcano throws thousands of tonnes of iron laden ash into the oceans. The phytoplankton always seem to overcome this "acidification" you're telling us is killing them.

And the same thing happens when humans fertilize the oceans with Iron too..

That's the fact, Jack...

But yeah.. it's certainly better to do this in certain regions where there are existing high levels of primary nutrients (nitrogen.. etc) and proper water temperatures. But fortunately the temperatures of ocean water vary greatly depending on latitude. So there will always be water that has the proper growing conditions.
