How Negative Frames Can Undermine Public Support for Studying Solar Geoengineering in the U.S [PDF]
Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022 Scientists and policymakers have become interested in the viability of solar geoengineering as a way to manipulate the Earth’s temperature in the face of unabated global warming.

US Conservative and Libertarian Experts and Solar Geoengineering: An Assessment [PDF]
European Journal of American Studies, 2021 The goal of this article is to review the various positions taken by free-market conservative and libertarian public policy experts regarding solar geoengineering. A quantitative analysis and a qualitative analysis of the online publications of ten major

Impact of solar geoengineering on temperature-attributable mortality. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S ADecisions about solar geoengineering (SG) entail risk–risk tradeoffs between the direct risks of SG and SG’s ability to reduce climate risks. Quantitative comparisons between these risks are needed to inform public policy. We evaluate idealized SG’s effectiveness in reducing deaths from warming using two climate models and an econometric analysis of ...

On solar geoengineering and climate uncertainty [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2015 AbstractUncertain climate system response has been raised as a concern regarding solar geoengineering. We explore the effects of geoengineering on one source of climate system uncertainty by evaluating the intermodel spread across 12 climate models participating in the Geoengineering Model Intercomparison project.

Solar geoengineering to limit the rate of temperature change [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions Series A, Mathematical, Physical, and Engineering Sciences, 2014 Solar geoengineering has been suggested as a tool that might reduce damage from anthropogenic climate change. Analysis often assumes that geoengineering would be used to maintain a constant global mean temperature. Under this scenario, geoengineering would be required either indefinitely (on societal time scales) or until atmospheric CO

“Sunshade World”: A fully coupled GCM evaluation of the climatic impacts of geoengineering [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2008 Sunshade geoengineering ‐ the installation of reflective mirrors between the Earth and the Sun to reduce incoming solar radiation, has been proposed as a mitigative measure to counteract anthropogenic global warming.

Governing solar geoengineering research as it leaves the laboratory [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions Series A, Mathematical, Physical, and Engineering Sciences, 2014 One of the greatest controversies in geoengineering policy concerns the next stages of solar radiation management research, and when and how it leaves the laboratory. Citing numerous risks and concerns, a range of prominent commentators have called for field experiments to be delayed until there is formalized research governance, such as an ...

Highly decentralized solar geoengineering [PDF]
Environmental Politics, 2019 Nonstate actors appear to have increasing power, in part due to new technologies that alter actors’ capacities and incentives. Although solar geoengineering is typically conceived of as centralized and state-deployed, we explore highly decentralized solar geoengineering.
