Analysis of Space‐Based Infrared Shielding as the Solar Radiation Protections for Global Warming Mitigations

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 1, Page 257-265, January 2026.
Characteristics of solar radiation protection. ABSTRACT Solar radiation management (SRM) is a geoengineering strategy designed to combat global warming by reflecting sunlight away from Earth, thereby reducing solar heating. While SRM has the potential to lower global temperatures, it's distinct from addressing the root cause of climate change ...

Regional Hydroclimate Response to Stratospheric Sulfate Geoengineering and the Role of Stratospheric Heating [PDF]

, 2019
Geoengineering methods could potentially offset aspects of greenhouse gas‐driven climate change. However, before embarking on any such strategy, a comprehensive understanding of its impacts must be obtained. Here, a 20‐member ensemble of simulations with

Impact of stratospheric aerosol geoengineering implemented only in the winter hemispheres on the ITCZ and tropical monsoon regions

Environmental Research: Climate
Stratospheric aerosol geoengineering (SAG) has been proposed as a potential climate intervention strategy to counteract global warming. Previous studies have shown that year-round or summer/spring implementation of SAG in one hemisphere would shift the ...

Can climate geoengineering mitigate the rising threat of aviation turbulence?

Environmental Research Letters
Global warming is reshaping atmospheric circulation and intensifying aviation turbulence, posing growing risks to passenger safety and airline operations. Stratospheric aerosol injection has been proposed as a geoengineering strategy to offset warming by

Atmospheric responses to geoengineering in the stratosphere

, 2014
: Geoengineering by injection of aerosol into the stratosphere has been proposed as a way to counterbalance global warming driven by human emissions of greenhouse gases. Its effectiveness will vary regionally depending on the circulation response.

Potential Impact of Stratospheric Aerosol Geoengineering on Cocoa Suitability in Nigeria

Cocoa is an important cash crop that contributes to the economy of Nigeria via job creation and foreign exchange earnings. However, escalating global warming trends threatens Cocoa cultivation and have resulted in a decline and heightened variability in Cocoa production in Nigeria, with potential for further exacerbation in the future.

Energetic constraints on tropical precipitation changes under stratospheric aerosol geoengineering: a topical review

Environmental Research Letters
Since Crutzen’s (2006 Clim. Change 77 211–20) call for research into stratospheric aerosol geoengineering (SAG), a form of solar radiation modification, the field of SAG research has witnessed substantial growth.

Stratospheric transport and tropospheric sink of solar geoengineering aerosol: a Lagrangian analysis

npj Climate and Atmospheric Science
AbstractStratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) aims to reflect solar radiation by increasing the stratospheric aerosol burden. To understand how the background circulation influences stratospheric transport of injected particles, we use a Lagrangian trajectory model (lacking numerical diffusion) to quantify particles’ number, flux, lifetime, and ...
