Jones, Anthony C.; Haywood, James M.; Jones, Andy (2016): Climatic impacts of stratospheric geoengineering with sulfate, black carbon and titania injection. In Atmos. Chem. Phys. 16 (5), pp. 2843–2862. DOI 10.5194/acp-16-2843-2016.
„In this paper, we examine the potential climatic effects of geoengineering by sulfate, black carbon and titania injection against a baseline RCP8.5 scenario. We use the HadGEM2-CCS model to simulate scenarios in which the top-of-the-atmosphere radiative imbalance due to rising greenhouse gas concentrations is offset by sufficient aerosol injection throughout the 2020–2100 period. We find that the global-mean temperature is effectively maintained at historical levels for the entirety of the period for all three aerosol-injection scenarios, though there is a wide range of side-effects which are discussed in detail.„
