Seasonal Injection Strategies for Stratospheric Aerosol Geoengineering [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2019
AbstractSimulations of stratospheric aerosol geoengineering have typically considered injections at a constant rate over the entire year. However, the seasonal variability of both sunlight and the stratospheric circulation suggests seasonally dependent injection strategies.

Stratospheric heating by potential geoengineering aerosols [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2011
A fixed dynamical heating model is used to investigate the pattern of zonal-mean stratospheric temperature change resulting from geoengineering with aerosols composed of sulfate, titania, limestone and soot.

Timescale for Detecting the Climate Response to Stratospheric Aerosol Geoengineering [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research D: Atmospheres, 2019
AbstractStratospheric aerosol geoengineering could be used to maintain global mean temperature despite increased atmospheric greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations, for example, to meet a 1.5 or 2 °C target. While this might reduce many climate change impacts, the resulting climate would not be the same as one with the same global mean temperature due to ...

Modifications of the quasi‐biennial oscillation by a geoengineering perturbation of the stratospheric aerosol layer

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2014
AbstractThis paper examines the impact of geoengineering via stratospheric sulfate aerosol on the quasi‐biennial oscillation (QBO) using the NASA Goddard Earth Observing System version 5 Chemistry Climate Model. We performed four 30 year simulations with a continuous injection of sulfur dioxide on the equator at 0° longitude.

Sensitivity of stratospheric geoengineering with black carbon to aerosol size and altitude of injection [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research, 2012
Simulations of stratospheric geoengineering with black carbon (BC) aerosols using a general circulation model with fixed sea surface temperatures show that the climate effects strongly depend on aerosol size and altitude of injection. 1 Tg BC a−1 injected into the lower stratosphere would cause little surface cooling for large radii but a large amount ...

Implication of stratospheric aerosol geoengineering on compound precipitation and temperature extremes in Africa

Science of the Total Environment, 2023
Three Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 5 (CMIP5) models that simulated the G4 experiment of the Geoengineering Model Intercomparison Project (GeoMIP) were used to investigate the impact of stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) on combined temperature and precipitation extremes in Africa that can have greater negative impacts on human and the ...

Stratospheric Sulfate Aerosol Geoengineering Could Alter the High‐Latitude Seasonal Cycle [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2019
Stratospheric aerosol geoengineering (SAG) has been proposed to reduce some impacts of anthropogenic climate change. Previous studies examined annual mean climate responses to SAG.

Soil Moisture and Other Hydrological Changes in a Stratospheric Aerosol Geoengineering Large Ensemble [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research D: Atmospheres, 2019
Stratospheric sulfate aerosol geoengineering has been proposed as a potential strategy to reduce the impacts of climate change. Here we investigate the impact of stratospheric aerosol geoengineering on the terrestrial hydrological cycle.
