Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 305-323., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Design of Aerosol Coating Reactors: Precursor Injection [PDF]
Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, 2011 Particles are coated with thin shells to facilitate their processing and incorporation into liquid or solid matrixes without altering core particle properties (coloristic, magnetic, etc.). Here, computational fluid and particle dynamics are combined to investigate the geometry of an aerosol reactor for continuous coating of freshly-made titanium ...

Assessing Responses and Impacts of Solar climate intervention on the Earth system with stratospheric aerosol injection (ARISE-SAI): protocol and initial results from the first simulations [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2022 Solar climate intervention using stratospheric aerosol injection is a proposed method of reducing global mean temperatures to reduce the worst consequences of climate change.

Assessing the consequences of including aerosol absorption in potential stratospheric aerosol injection climate intervention strategies [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2022 Abstract. Theoretical stratospheric aerosol intervention (SAI) strategies model the deliberate injection of aerosols or their precursors into the stratosphere, thereby reflecting incident sunlight back to space and counterbalancing a fraction of the warming due to increased concentrations of greenhouse gases.

Profiling structured beams using injected aerosols [PDF]
SPIE Proceedings, 2012 Profiling structured beams produced by X-ray free-electron lasers (FELs) is crucial to both maximizing signal intensity for weakly scattering targets and interpreting their scattering patterns. Earlier ablative imprint studies describe how to infer the X-ray beam profile from the damage that an attenuated beam inflicts on a substrate.

Changing transport processes in the stratosphere by radiative heating of sulfate aerosols [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2017 The injection of sulfur dioxide (SO2) into the stratosphere to form an artificial stratospheric aerosol layer is discussed as an option for solar radiation management.

Smoke injection heights from agricultural burning in Eastern Europe as seen by CALIPSO [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2010 High frequency of agricultural fires is observed every year during the summer months over SW Russia and Eastern Europe. This study investigates the initial injection height of aerosol generated by the fires over these regions during the biomass burning ...

Dynamical Perturbation of the Stratosphere by a Pyrocumulonimbus Injection of Carbonaceous Aerosols
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2022 Abstract. The Pacific Northwest pyrocumulonimbus Event (PNE) took place in British Columbia during the nighttime hours between the 12th and 13th of August 2017. Several pyroconvective clouds erupted in this occasion, and released in the upper troposphere/lower stratosphere unprecedented amounts of carbonaceous aerosols (300 ktn). Only a few years later,

The effects of timing and rate of marine cloud brightening aerosol injection on albedo changes during the diurnal cycle of marine stratocumulus clouds [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2013 The marine-cloud brightening geoengineering technique has been suggested as a possible means of counteracting the positive radiative forcing associated with anthropogenic atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> increases.

A Subpolar-focused Stratospheric Aerosol Injection Deployment Scenario
Environmental Research Communications, 2022 Abstract Stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) is a prospective climate intervention technology that would seek to abate climate change by deflecting back into space a small fraction of the incoming solar radiation. While most consideration given to SAI assumes a global intervention, this paper considers an alternative scenario whereby SAI ...
