Persistent polar ocean warming in a strategically geoengineered climate

Changes in the water cycle arising from a strategic geoengineering approach alter the ocean circulation and structure, according to an ensemble of simulations with an Earth System Model.

A temporary, moderate and responsive scenario for solar geoengineering

Solar radiation management – a form of geoengineering – could be used to cool the planet but has potential risks. A scenario for solar radiation management is proposed that is temporary, moderate and can be adjusted in light of new information.

Management of trade-offs in geoengineering through optimal choice of non-uniform radiative forcing

This study looks at solar radiation management and how the benefits will vary between regions. Using a general circulation model, the trade-offs between optimizing latitudinal and seasonal distribution of reduced solar radiation are investigated.

Climate econometric models indicate solar geoengineering would reduce inter-country income inequality

Exploring the heterogeneity in impacts and outcomes of using solar geoengineering to counteract global warming is important. Here the authors found that solar geoengineering that reduces temperature below present-day would grow GDP by accelerating economic development in tropics, but projections for global GDP-per-capita by the end of the century are highly dispersed and model dependent.

Uncertainty and the basis for confidence in solar geoengineering research

Discussions surrounding stratospheric aerosol geoengineering have increased in climate-change discourse, but our understanding of its impacts is relatively limited. This Perspective discusses the uncertainty and risk associated with stratospheric aerosol geoengineering, offering suggestions on research topics that should be prioritized.
