Scenarios for modeling solar radiation modification.

Journal Article Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America · August 2022 Making informed future decisions about solar radiation modification (SRM; also known as solar geoengineering)-approaches such as stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) that would cool the climate by reflecting sunlight-requires projections of the climate re ...

Solar geoengineering research on the U.S. policy agenda: when might its time come?

Journal Article Environmental Politics · January 1, 2022 Solar geoengineering (SG) may be a helpful tool to reduce harms from climate change, yet further research into its potential benefits and risks must occur prior to any implementation. So far, however, organized research on SG has been absent from the U.S. ... Full text Cite

Reflections on a hypothetical decentralized grassroots deployment solar geoengineering scenario

Journal Article Futures · September 1, 2021 What if solar geoengineering were enacted not through careful intergovernmental deliberations or the actions of a rogue state, but by millions of private citizens taking matters into their own hands? This thought experiment—the subject of a scenario exerci ... Full text Cite

Addressing the limits to adaptation across four damage-response systems

Journal Article Environmental Science and Policy · June 1, 2015 Our ability to adapt to climate change is not boundless, and previous modeling efforts show that future policy decisions about climate change are affected when adaptation limits are exceeded. Adaptation limits are delineated by capacity thresholds, after w ... Full text Cite

Modeling adaptation as a flow and stock decision with mitigation

Journal Article Climatic Change · February 1, 2014 An effective policy response to climate change will include, among other things, investments in lowering greenhouse gas emissions (mitigation), as well as short-term temporary (flow) and long-lived capital-intensive (stock) adaptation to climate change. A ... Full text Cite

Multiple adaptation types with mitigation: A framework for policy analysis

Journal Article Global Environmental Change · December 1, 2013 Effective climate policy will consist of mitigation and adaptation implemented simultaneously in a policy portfolio to reduce the risks of climate change. Previous studies of the tradeoffs between mitigation and adaptation have implicitly framed the proble ... Full text Cite

Water and greenhouse gas tradeoffs associated with a transition to a low carbon transportation system

Conference ASME 2011 International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition Imece 2011 · January 1, 2011 Transportation fuels are heavily dominated by the use of petroleum, but concerns over oil depletion (e.g., peak oil), energy security, and greenhouse gas emissions from petroleum combustion are driving the search for alternatives. As we look to shift away ... Full text Cite

The optimal paths of climate change mitigation and adaptation under certainty and uncertainty

Journal Article International Journal of Global Warming · January 1, 2009 Tradeoffs between climate change mitigation and adaptation policies are explored under both certainty and uncertainty with learning using a numerical two-period decision model. We first replicate a version of the Adaptation in DICE climate model (AD-DICE) ... Full text Cite
