Renormalising climate intervention [PDF]
, 2021 In June 1988, anthropogenic climate change became a global public and political concern. With the ‘summer of climate’, inadvertent climate change definitively pushed out deliberate climate interventions as the primo concern of climate scientists and politicians.

A Primer on Weather and Climate Intervention for Economists [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2019 There is limited public discourse and understanding about the history and science of weather and climate intervention, though scientists have researched, tested and implemented numerous methods of weather modification for six decades. Also, climate-related geoengineering is steadily gaining support as a means of combatting rising global temperatures ...

Effect of Regional Marine Cloud Brightening Interventions on Climate Tipping Elements
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 It has been proposed that increasing greenhouse gas (GHG) driven climate tipping point risks may prompt consideration of solar radiation modification (SRM) climate intervention to reduce those risks.

The Radiative and Cloud Responses to Sea Salt Aerosol Engineering in GFDL Models
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Marine cloud brightening is a proposal to counteract global warming by increasing sea salt aerosol emissions. In theory, this increases the cloud droplet number concentration of subtropical marine stratocumulus decks, increasing cloud brightness and ...

The Impact of Stratospheric Aerosol Injection on Extreme Fire Weather Risk
Earth's Future, 2023 Stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) would potentially be effective in limiting global warming and preserving large‐scale temperature patterns; however, there are still gaps in understanding the impact of SAI on wildfire risk.

, 2023 Climatic shocks are exerting pressure on livelihoods of Zimbabwe's smallholder farmer—who irrigate only 2% of their farms. The smallholder farmers in drought-prone areas are more exposed to drought because of their limited ability to cope with shocks and

The Intervention of Climate Science [PDF]
, 2023 Is climate science changing the Earth? We would normally want to answer no. A science merely represents and does not intervene. Representation comes first and may or may not be followed by intervention, because intervention is a choice. Intervention is what humans decide to do, or not to do, with the causal knowledge that science provides.

Assessing Outcomes in Stratospheric Aerosol Injection Scenarios Shortly After Deployment
Earth's Future, 2023 Stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) is a proposed form of climate intervention that would release reflective particles into the stratosphere, thereby reducing solar insolation and cooling the planet.

Quantifying the Efficiency of Stratospheric Aerosol Geoengineering at Different Altitudes
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) of reflective sulfate aerosols has been proposed to temporarily reduce the impacts of global warming. In this study, we compare two SAI simulations which inject at different altitudes to provide the same amount of ...

Assessing the Impact of Stratospheric Aerosol Injection on US Convective Weather Environments
Earth's Future, 2023 Continued climate warming, together with the overall evaluation and implementation of a range of climate mitigation and adaptation approaches, has prompted increasing research into proposed solar climate intervention methods, such as stratospheric ...
