Kicking the can down the road: understanding the effects of delaying the deployment of stratospheric aerosol injection

open access: yesEnvironmental Research: Climate
Climate change is a prevalent threat, and it is unlikely that current mitigation efforts will be enough to avoid unwanted impacts. One potential option to reduce climate change impacts is the use of stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI).

Radiation heat losses in solar collectors with plastic covers

open access: yes, 1978
The use of plastic covers instead of glass covers in solar collectors requires a modification of the calculation of radiation heat loss, because plastics are, in contrast to glass, partly transparent for thermal radiation. This article describes a simple

Gas‐Selective Remote Plasma Engineering of WO3 Photoanodes for Solar Water Splitting

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Gas‐selective remote plasma treatment tunes the near‐surface defect chemistry of WO3 photoanodes without altering their bulk structure. Ar plasma generates the most oxygen‐vacancy‐rich surface and the highest W5+ content, delivering the strongest photocurrent.

Producing the Inevitability of Solar Radiation Modification in Climate Politics

open access: yesEthics & International Affairs
AbstractThis essay investigates the fit between solar radiation modification (SRM) and climate politics. Researchers, activists, and politicians often present SRM technologies as “radical.” According to this frame, SRM comes into view as a last-ditch effort to avoid climate emergencies.

A SOLAR RADIATION PREDICTION MODEL FOR APPLICATIONS IN ENERGY HARVESTING

open access: yes, 2016
Solar energy, the most abundant energy resource on earth as well as it is the most evenly distributed energy resource. The intensity varies since the beginning of the rise of sun to noon and until sunset shows that solar radiation is intermittent in ...

Shadow‐Free Back‐Contact Perovskite Thin‐Film Detectors for Direct Extreme‐Ultraviolet and Soft X‐Ray Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A triple‐cation perovskite detector with a quasi‐interdigitated back‐contact architecture enables highly sensitive and linear EUV/soft x‐ray detection by minimizing electrode shadowing and enhancing charge extraction. Efficient interfacial carrier collection and rapid temporal response highlight the potential of back‐contact‐engineered perovskites for ...

Low‐Altitude High‐Latitude Stratospheric Aerosol Injection Is Feasible With Existing Aircraft

open access: yesEarth's Future
Stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) is a proposed method of climate intervention in which aerosols or their precursors would be injected into the stratosphere to reduce or halt global warming.

Solar Radiation Estimation in South Dakota

open access: yes, 1996
The principal source of energy for the earth-atmosphere system is solar radiation. Demand for solar radiation data has become very significant for modeling agricultural processes such as photosynthesis and evapotranspiration.

Advances in Halide Perovskites for Photon Radiation Detectors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This work highlights recent progress in perovskite‐based photon radiation detectors, covering organic–inorganic hybrid, inorganic, lead‐free double, and vacancy‐ordered halide perovskites. Their detection performance is compared, material‐specific advantages and challenges are examined, and provides insight into current limitations and future ...
