  • Claudia Wieners on the devastation caused by an historic volcanic eruption in Iceland and the lessons we might learn for future SRM deployment

    A fascinating insight into the effects of the Lakagígar eruption in Iceland in 1783. Claudia discusses in detail the fallout on fauna and flora and also what we might learn in terms of readiness for SRM deployment and the broader governance of the potential downsides. 

    Her paper can be found at https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jvolgeores.2020.107080 and it has the best title of any paper I've seen for a long time  being "Haze, Hunger, Hesitation: Disaster Aid after the 1783 Lakagígar Eruption"

    Eruptions & Emissions cause changes in ocean carbon sinks

    A new model explains why the ocean’s capacity to take up carbon was reduced on a decadal scale, by accounting for reduced pCO2 emissions and ocean state changes due to the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo.

    Unnatural climate solutions? Nature Climate Change volume 10, pages98–99(2020)

    Rob Bellamy on why the hype around ‘natural’ climate solutions threatens us all. His new paper is with Shannon Osaka.  Abstract: Framing solutions to climate change as natural strongly influences their acceptability, but what constitutes a ‘natural’ climate solution is selected, not self-evident. We suggest that the current, narrow formulation of natural climate solutions risks constraining what are thought of as desirable policy options. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41558-019-0661-z

  • Matthew Watson discusses SRM, reflections on the SPICE project and the perils of being a scientist in this area. An unmissable episode!
    Matt Watson talks about his experiences on the SPICE Project, the need for careful research into SRM given temperature rises and the slow pace of decarbonisation. He also explains how he dealt with a death threat that came during the SPICE project, an unexpected hazard for someone who is a volcanologist and also known from his blog as the reluctant geoengineer. 
    Any comments please send to @reviewer2geo or @geoengineering1 or @clare_nomad_geo
