The effectiveness of solar radiation management using fine sea spray across multiple climatic regions [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics
Marine cloud brightening (MCB) geoengineering aims to inject aerosols over oceans to brighten clouds and reflect more sunlight in order to offset the impacts of global warming or to achieve localized climate cooling.

Differentiating Solar Radiation Modification Field Experiments: Scale, Technical Characteristics, and Governance Implications

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Proposed solar radiation modification (SRM) field experiments are receiving growing scientific and policy attention, with several localized experiments having occurred or under development. While they may be critical for improving technical understanding and reducing uncertainties, SRM field experiments remain controversial and inadequately ...

Unexpected failure of regional marine cloud brightening in a warmer world

, 2023
Abstract Marine cloud brightening is a solar geoengineering1–3 proposal to cool atmospheric temperatures and reduce some impacts of climate change. To-date, modeling studies of solar geoengineering have primarily focused on large-scale schemes with objectives of stabilizing or mediating changes in global mean temperature4–7.

Dynamical and Radiative Influence on the Hadley Circulation by Aerosol‐Cloud Interactions

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract How aerosols modulate large‐scale circulation and the cloud radiative effect (CRE) is explored using a two‐dimensional Hadley circulation model with near‐large eddy simulation resolution. Six 30‐day simulations are performed under three aerosol loadings with a prescribed sea surface temperature (SST0) or slab ocean model (SOM).

A Model Intercomparison Study to Investigate Mixing Characteristics in Non‐Precipitating Stratocumulus Clouds

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Recent aircraft observations of marine stratocumulus clouds consistently showed that cloud microphysical relationships vary with altitude, indicating inhomogeneous mixing characteristics near cloud top and homogeneous mixing characteristics in mid‐levels of clouds.

Evidence that deliberate marine cloud brightening can be more effective than previously thought

, 2023
With global warming currently standing at approximately + 1.2 °C, climate change is a pressing global issue. Marine cloud brightening (MCB) proposes injecting aerosols into marine clouds to enhance their reflectivity and thereby planetary albedo. However,

Building a comprehensive library of observed Lagrangian trajectories for testing modeled cloud evolution, aerosol–cloud interactions, and marine cloud brightening [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics
As the evolution of marine low clouds is sensitive to the current state of the atmosphere and varying meteorological forcing, it is crucial to ascertain how cloud responses differ across a spectrum of those conditions.

IMO2020 Regulations Accelerate Global Warming by up to 3 Years in UKESM1

Earth's Future
The International Maritime Organization (IMO) introduced new regulations on the sulfur content of shipping emissions in 2020 (IMO2020). Estimates of the climatic impact of this global reduction in anthropogenic sulfate aerosols vary widely.

Coral δ13C Reveals Little Ice Age Dimming of Tropical Surface Shortwave Radiation Not Captured by Climate Models

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Tropical low‐cloud feedback is the largest source of uncertainty in climate sensitivity, yet multi‐century records of surface shortwave radiation are scarce. We calibrate Porites coral δ13C against satellite photosynthetically available radiation (PAR) and reconstruct monthly PAR for the northern South China Sea during the Medieval Climate ...
