Stratospheric Aerosols for Solar Radiation Management
2012SRM in the context of this entry involves placing a large amount of aerosols in the stratosphere to reduce the amount of solar radiation reaching the surface, thereby cooling the surface and counteracting some of the warming from anthropogenic greenhouse gases.

Regional climate response to solar-radiation management
Nature Geoscience, 2010Modelling studies suggest that management of solar radiation could produce stabilized global temperatures and reduced global precipitation. An analysis of a large-ensemble simulation of 54 temperature-stabilization scenarios suggests that it may not be possible to achieve climate stabilization through management of solar radiation simultaneously in all

Sunshades for Solar Radiation Management
2012There is strong scientific consensus that the Earth’s climate has been warming over the last century and that this warming is primarily due to human influences on the climate system (IPCC 2007). Attempts to curb human emissions of greenhouse gases have so far largely failed; as such, and in an attempt to avoid or delay potential dangerous climate ...

Fail-safe solar radiation management geoengineering
Mitigation and Adaptation Strategies for Global Change, 2012To avoid dangerous changes to the climate system, the global mean temperature must not rise more than 2 °C from the 19th century level. The German Advisory Council on Global Change recommends maintaining the rate of change in temperature to within 0.2 °C per decade. This paper supposes that a geoengineering option of solar radiation management (SRM) by

Solar Radiation Management, Cloud Albedo Enhancement
2012Cloud albedo enhancement is one of several possible methods of solar radiation management by which the rate of increase in world temperatures could be reduced or even reversed. It depends on a well-known phenomenon in atmospheric physics known as the Twomey effect.

Solar Radiation Management and the Governance of Hubris
2014Proposals for the intentional engineering of the Earth's climate through techniques of solar radiation management (SRM) have been accompanied by profound questions of governance. As the purpose, goals and motivations of SRM are considerations of paramount importance, governance must not only encompass risks and unintended consequences, but also intent.

Characterization of Aerosols for Stratospheric Solar Radiation Management
Understanding the properties of aerosols under stratospheric conditions is of particular importance for applications in solar radiation management. Aerosols have the potential to influence the Earth's radiative balance by stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI), which increases albedo and enhances the reflection of solar radiation back into space.Svitlana Malashevych +3 more
