Comparing different generations of idealized solar geoengineering simulations in the Geoengineering Model Intercomparison Project (GeoMIP) [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2021
Solar geoengineering has been receiving increased attention in recent years as a potential temporary solution to offset global warming. One method of approximating global-scale solar geoengineering in climate models is via solar reduction experiments ...

Brief communication: Understanding solar geoengineering's potential to limit sea level rise requires attention from cryosphere experts [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2018
Stratospheric aerosol geoengineering, a form of solar geoengineering, is a proposal to add a reflective layer of aerosol to the stratosphere to reduce net radiative forcing and so to reduce the risks of climate change.

Nonstate governance of solar geoengineering research [PDF]

open access: yesClimatic Change, 2020
AbstractAs climate change’s risks have grown and limits to primary responses become evident, solar geoengineering (or solar radiation modification) has risen in prominence as a potential complementary response. Widespread calls for expanded research have raised objections, based on anticipated links to potential future deployment and potentially ...

Pandemic politics—lessons for solar geoengineering [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2020
Responses to the COVID-19 emergency have exposed break-points at the interface of science, media, and policy. We summarize five lessons that should be heeded if climate change ever enters a state of emergency perceived to warrant stratospheric aerosol injection.

Geopolitical ecology of solar geoengineering: from a 'logic of multilateralism' to logics of militarization

open access: yesJournal of Political Ecology, 2020
Solar geoengineering technologies intended to slow climate change by injecting sulfate aerosols into the stratosphere are gaining traction in climate policy.

Different types of drought under climate change or geoengineering: Systematic review of societal implications

open access: yesFrontiers in Climate, 2022
Climate change and solar geoengineering have different implications for drought. Climate change can “speed up” the hydrological cycle, but it causesgreater evapotranspiration than the historical climate because of higher temperatures.

The hidden injustices of advancing solar geoengineering research

open access: yesGlobal Sustainability, 2020
Advancing solar geoengineering research is associated with multiple hidden injustices that are revealed by addressing three questions: Who is conducting and funding solar geoengineering research?

Solar geoengineering, uncertainty, and the price of carbon [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Economics and Management, 2018
Abstract We consider the socially optimal use of solar geoengineering to manage climate change and its implications for carbon emissions abatement policy. We show that solar geoengineering is a substitute for emissions abatement; optimal policy includes less abatement, by up to eight percentage points, and has a lower carbon price, by up to fifteen ...
