Cost Analysis of Stratospheric Albedo Modification Delivery Systems
(IOP Publishing, 2012)We perform engineering cost analyses of systems capable of delivering 1–5 million metric tonnes (Mt) of albedo modification material to altitudes of 18–30 km. The goal is to compare a range of delivery systems evaluated ... -
The Fate of an Engineered Planet
(Nature Publishing Group, 2013)Solar engineering and other exceptionally ambitious new technologies to deal with the reality of rising global temperatures come riddled with uncertainties. To illustrate how complex the problem is and what kind of challenges ... -
Stratospheric controlled perturbation experiment: a small-scale experiment to improve understanding of the risks of solar geoengineering
(The Royal Society Publishing, 2014)Although solar radiation management (SRM) through stratospheric aerosol methods has the potential to mitigate impacts of climate change, our current knowledge of stratospheric processes suggests that these methods may ...
