Past Field Experiments of Solar Radiation Modification: A Review of the Scientific and Technical Aspects for Governance

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract As global warming intensifies, Solar Radiation Modification (SRM) has drawn increasing scientific and policy interest as a potential means to temporarily offset climate impacts. This review examines past SRM (or SRM‐like) field experiments, categorized into three primary techniques: Tropospheric and Stratospheric Aerosol Injection (SAI ...

The Trajectory and Structural Integrity of Aerially Deployed Manufactured Baits for Canid Control

open access: yesEcological Management &Restoration, Volume 27, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In Australia, poison baits are aerially deployed in remote and inaccessible areas to mitigate invasive animal impacts. Program efficacy and compliance with mandated distance restrictions require accurate bait distribution but deployment accuracy and precision have not been evaluated for Doggone manufactured baits.
