Arctic Geoengineering - Stratospheric Sulfur Aerosols

Stratospheric Sulfur Aerosols

Ken Caldeira et al. analysed the effect of geoengineering in the Arctic using Stratospheric sulfur aerosols This technique is not specific to the Arctic region. He found that At high latitudes, there is less sunlight deflected per unit albedo change but climate system feedbacks operate more powerfully there. These two effects largely cancel each other, making the global mean temperature response per unit top-of-atmosphere albedo change relatively insensitive to latitude.
