Finally, my last paper from the PhD is out!
To what extent can cirrus cloud seeding counteract global warming? doi.org/10.1088/1748-9…
We looked at responses of ECHAM-HAM and CESM-CAM5 to the most efficient cirrus seeding strategy we could know of for each of the models.

Good advice here for remote post-docing. Hey, if anyone's interested in a remote post doc with me, I am definitely up for writing a grant application. Various possibilities. Maths/stats/climate/weather/models/uncertainty/experts/complexity. Email me. peerj.com/preprints/2790…

Agreed, @ ing you all wasn't appropriate. The article annoyed me and I replied in haste.

2 new papers on the way. One re-submitted before 9 am and hopefully another submitted later today.

Women are under-represented in the field of solar geoengineering but this narrative sidelines them rather than highlighting them, e.g.: @hollyjeanbuck @DrJaneFlegal @annamariahubert @kellywanser @HeleneMuri @katericke

'“If deployed at scale, SRM could disrupt the monsoons in Asia and cause droughts in Africa, affecting the food and water supplies of two billion people," warns Ribiero' This is not what we are finding in model studies of this idea: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10… nature.com/articles/s4155…

Ah, that's good. I've not been so involved in the modeling in this round and the last I heard the 8.5 scenario was used as the core. Unfortunately it is the main GHG scenario in the solar geoengineering modeling effort.

I agree that its worthwhile changing focus from RCP8.5 towards a more realistic BAU case. However, there's a lot of momentum in the system. The core of the AR6 runs and the various MIPs are based on RCP8.5. This means that any transition away from RCP8.5 would take years.

I thought you covered the issues well and were even-handed. The discussion as a whole makes a great introduction to the broader issues posed by geoengineering.

Great job on the @ezraklein geoengineering podcast @DrJaneFlegal! Going to recommend it to students who want to get a broader understanding of solar geoengineering issues when I cover this in my course. vox.com/podcasts/2019/…

Gotcha. But you you referring to the economic harms that might follow from very rapid transition. What would be a good high-level metric? Stranded asset value? Are there such estimates?

I'm a little confused by the use of the term "transition risk" and its framing as being in opposition to "physical risk". Seems like "ambition gap" be a better term for what I think is meant.

You'd have to ask Wake, but I think the costs are for building the prototypes and getting the aircraft certified, rather than just producing a design.

I'm no aeronautical engineering but I think you'd need different engines and wings to do it. There are a few ER-2s and WB-57s (repurposed spy planes) that can get up to 20 km but they don't build them anymore.
