Abstract Snowpack accumulation and melt critically regulate freshwater availability across many regions. Under global warming, the dominant control on snowpack variability shifts from cold‐season precipitation (Pc) to cold‐season temperature (Tc), altering snow–rain partitioning, snowmelt timing, and runoff generation.

This article examines the relevance of the research on solar geo-engineering, which has become the new buzz-word in climate change mitigation. With current climate mitigation policies becoming evidently inadequate, one needs to look at science for the panacea. Solar geoengineering is a double-edged sword, capable of giving desirable results in the near

Deployment Strategy Shapes the Polar Climate Response to Marine Cloud Brightening
Abstract Marine cloud brightening (MCB) is a proposed solar climate intervention strategy that increases marine cloud reflectivity to cool Earth's surface. While previous studies have largely examined its global temperature and precipitation effects, little is known about how MCB deployment strategies influence polar climate and sea ice.

Thermosteric and dynamic sea level under solar geoengineering
The IPCC sixth assessment report forecasts sea level rise (SLR) of up to 2 m along coasts by 2100 relative to 1995–2014 following business as usual (SSP585) scenarios. Geoengineering may reduce this threat.

The implications of ionospheric disturbances for precise GNSS positioning in Greenland
Ionospheric irregularities impair Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals and, in turn, affect the performance of GNSS positioning. Such effects are especially evident at low and high latitudes, which are currently gaining the attention of ...

Maximum Lifetime of the Vegetative Biosphere
Abstract We use a three‐dimensional model to calculate steady‐state climates at various intervals in Earth's future, across a parameter space of increasing insolation and decreasing CO2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$ mixing ratio. Comparison with prior results shows an overestimation of warming by one‐dimensional models when solar constant is increased and CO2 ...

Sulfur Exposure for Airplane Passengers From Stratospheric Aerosol Injection
Abstract Injection of sulfur dioxide to create a stratospheric sulfate aerosol cloud is the most studied method of climate intervention. It has been suggested that airplanes be used at high latitudes to create such a cloud at lower altitudes. Commercial airplanes routinely fly at altitudes of 11 km in the Arctic, and therefore passengers could be ...

Global streamflow and flood response to stratospheric aerosol geoengineering [PDF]
Flood risk is projected to increase under future warming climates due to an enhanced hydrological cycle. Solar geoengineering is known to reduce precipitation and slow down the hydrological cycle and may therefore be expected to offset increased flood

Highland Pathways Shape Global Dust Vertical Transport and Its Climate Effects
Abstract Highlands govern global dust vertical transport, yet their region‐specific pathways and climatic impacts remain unclear. We found that although dust emissions from highlands are minimal, the dust content in the middle and upper atmosphere over highlands is high, identifying highlands as key dust conduits.

The Indonesian Throughflow circulation under solar geoengineering
Abstract. The Indonesia Throughflow (ITF) is the only low-latitude channel between the Pacific and Indian oceans, and its variability has important effects on global climate and biogeochemical cycles. Climate models consistently predict a decline in ITF transport under global warming, but it has not yet been examined under solar geoengineering ...
