From the Gulf of Guinea to the Global Stage: Africa’s Voice in the Age of Climate Intervention
Abstract Climate intervention technologies, Solar Radiation Management (SRM) and marine Carbon Dioxide Removal (mCDR), are moving from theoretical proposal to serious policy consideration, yet the scientific communities and governance frameworks shaping these decisions remain concentrated in the Global North, while the populations most exposed to ...

Current sheets in the solar corona : formation, fragmentation and heating [PDF]
In this thesis we investigate current sheets in the solar corona. The well known 1D model for the tearing mode instability is presented, before progressing to 2D where we introduce a non-uniform resistivity.

Abstract Venus‐ward return flow can significantly influence ion escape from Venus and may therefore play an important role in atmospheric evolution. However, the mechanism driving return flow remains under debate. Here, we investigate the occurrence rate and spatial distribution of ion return flows in the Venusian induced magnetotail, and their ...

The Spatial Localization of Storm‐Time ULF Waves Due To Plasmaspheric Plumes
Abstract The generation and propagation of Ultra Low Frequency (ULF) waves are intrinsically coupled to the cold plasma population in the terrestrial magnetosphere. During geomagnetic storms, extreme reconfigurations of the cold plasma create a complex and dynamic system that drastically modifies this coupling.
