Public opinion about solar radiation management: A cross-cultural study in 20 countries around the world

Climatic Change
Some argue that complementing climate change mitigation measures with solar radiation management (SRM) might prove a last resort to limit global warming to 1.5 °C. To make a socially responsible decision on whether to use SRM, it is important to consider

Governing Climate Engineering: A Proposal for Immediate Governance of Solar Radiation Management

Sustainability, 2019
Solar radiation management (SRM) technologies would reflect a small amount of incoming solar radiation back into space before the radiation can warm the planet.

Differing precipitation response between solar radiation management and carbon dioxide removal due to fast and slow components

Earth System Dynamics, 2019
. Solar radiation management (SRM) and carbon dioxide removal (CDR) are geoengineering methods that have been proposed to mitigate global warming in the event of insufficient greenhouse gas emission reductions.

Measuring solar radiation and spatio-temporal distribution in different street network direction through solar trajectories and street view images

International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
Under the dual pressures of rapid urbanization and global warming, the management of solar radiation has become an urgent issue to address. In this context, the potential regulatory role of urban street networks on solar radiation has garnered widespread

Solar radiation management: a proposal for immediate polycentric governance

, 2018
The stringency of the 1.5 degree goal under the Paris Agreement, coupled with the mismatch between that goal and domestic mitigation pledges, inevitably directs attention onto the potential future role of solar radiation management (SRM) technologies ...

Computation of irradiance in a solar still by using a refined algorithm [PDF]

, 2013
A refined solar algorithm from the ESP-r system has been used to calculate the distribution of solar irradiation inside a basin-type solar still. In the approach, surface finish, view factors and multiple reflections are taken into consideration in the ...

ELD analysis under tropical climate using wavelet and regression approaches for power management: Indonesia case study

International Journal of Sustainable Engineering, 2023
The weather conditions in one location can affect consumption patterns and the volume of electricity load demand (ELD) on power systems. This paper presents a wavelet-regression method to analyse the characteristic of ELD in Indonesia towards weather ...

Atomic Size Misfit for Electrocatalytic Small Molecule Activation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review explores the application and mechanisms of atomic size misfit in catalysis for small molecule activation, focusing on how structural defects and electronic properties can effectively lower the energy barriers of chemical bonds in molecules like H2O, CO2, and N2.
