Abstract
With climate change standing as a pressing emergency demanding immediate attention and comprehensive redress, marine geoengineering has emerged as a prospective avenue for mitigating anthropogenic greenhouse emissions. This article reviews the sketchy international governance seascape which has emerged to control the environmental risks posed by marine geoengineering with limited specific controls adopted under the London Convention and London Protocol (LC/LP) and the Convention on Biological Diversity. The article concludes by describing the foggy future for marine geoengineering governance. Many questions remain unanswered, such as next steps under the LC/LP, the climate change regime, and possibly through the United Nations Environment Assembly.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
