The interaction of solar radiation modification with Earth system tipping elements [PDF]
Earth System Dynamics, 2023 The avoidance of hitting tipping points has been invoked as a significant benefit of solar radiation modification (SRM) techniques; however, the physical science underpinning this has thus far not been comprehensively assessed.

Solar radiation modification is risky, but so is rejecting it: a call for balanced research
Oxford Open Climate Change, 2023 As it is increasingly uncertain whether humanity can limit global warming to 1.5 degrees, Solar Radiation Modification (SRM) has been suggested as a potential temporary complement to mitigation. While no replacement for mitigation, evidence to date suggests that some SRM methods could contribute to reducing climate risks and would be technically ...
