Substantial Climate Response outside the Target Area in an Idealized Experiment of Regional Radiation Management

Substantial Climate Response outside the Target Area in an Idealized Experiment of Regional Radiation Management

Radiation management (RM) has been proposed as a conceivable climate engineering (CE) intervention to mitigate global warming. In this study, we used a coupled climate model (MPI-ESM) with a very idealized setup to investigate the efficacy and risks of CE at a local scale in space and time (regional radiation management, RRM) assuming that cloud modification is technically possible.
