Oldham, P.; et al. (2014): Mapping the landscape of climate engineering

Oldham, P.; Szerszynski, Bronislaw; Stilgoe, Jack; Brown, Casey; Eacott, B.; Yuille, A. (2014): Mapping the landscape of climate engineering. In Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society 372 (2031). DOI 10.1098/rsta.2014.0065.

„In the absence of a governance framework for climate engineering technologies such as solar radiation management (SRM), the practices of scientific research and intellectual property acquisition can de facto shape the development of the field. It is therefore important to make visible emerging patterns of research and patenting, which we suggest can effectively be done using bibliometric methods.“

Kniebes, Carola; et al. (2014): Validity of WTP Measures under Preference Uncertainty

Kniebes, Carola; Rehdanz, Katrin; Schmidt, Ulrich (2014): Validity of WTP Measures under Preference Uncertainty. Kiel Earth Institut. Kiel (Working Paper, 1972).

„Using data from two novel large-scale surveys on the perception of solar radiation management (SRM), a little-known technique for counteracting climate change, we compare the performance of both methods in the field. In doing so, we use the criterion of theoretical validity and measure the degree to which WTP values are consistent with theoretical expectations.“
