Weakened tropical circulation and reduced precipitation in response to geoengineering
Environmental Research Letters, 2014 Geoengineering by injection of reflective aerosols into the stratosphere has been proposed as a way to counteract the warming effect of greenhouse gases by reducing the intensity of solar radiation reaching the surface.

Environmental Research Letters, 2014 Solar geoengineering has been proposed as a method of meeting climate objectives, such as reduced globally averaged surface temperatures. However, because of incomplete understanding of the effects of geoengineering on the climate system, its ...

Impacts of stratospheric aerosol geoengineering strategy on Caribbean coral reefs [PDF]
International Journal of Climate Change Strategies and Management, 2018 Purpose - Currently, negotiation on global carbon emissions reduction is very difficult owing to lack of international willingness. In response, geoengineering (climate engineering) strategies are proposed to artificially cool the planet.

From moral hazard to risk-response feedback
Climate Risk Management, 2021 The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change assessments (IPCC) Special Report on 1.5 °C of global warming is clear. Nearly all pathways that hold global warming well below 2 °C involve carbon removal (IPCC, 2015).

Transboundary effects from idealized regional geoengineering
Environmental Research Communications, 2023 Regional geoengineering, by reflecting sunlight over a very limited spatial domain, might be considered as a means to target specific regional impacts of climate change.

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Climate change is one of the most profound ethical and existential challenges of the 21st century. Beyond its physical, economic, and environmental consequences, it raises fundamental moral questions about justice, equity, responsibility, and the right to a livable planet.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.Abstract Aqueous sulfuric acid is the benchmark sulfate aerosol for stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI), but H2SO4 ${\mathrm{H}}_{2}{\text{SO}}_{4}$/H2 ${\mathrm{H}}_{2}$O aerosol absorbs strongly in the infrared, producing longwave warming that significantly offsets its shortwave cooling. Here, we evaluate magnesium sulfate (MgSO4 ${\text{MgSO}}_{4}$

Techno-moral change through solar geoengineering: How geoengineering challenges sustainability
Prometheus, 2022 This article brings a new perspective to the ethical debate on geoengineering through stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI), incorporating the emerging techno-moral change scholarship into the discussion surrounding sustainability.

Evaluation of the E3SM Version 3 Stratosphere Performance
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 10, October 2026.Abstract The interactions between the stratosphere and the troposphere have significant impacts on human activities and Earth system variability. In the third release version of the low‐resolution Energy Exascale Earth System Model (E3SMv3), the representation of the stratosphere is improved through vertical grid refinement in the lower stratosphere ...

Journal of Science & TechnologyThis 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
