  2. Marine cloud brightening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_cloud_brightening

    Marine stratocumulus clouds are common in particular regions, specifically the eastern Pacific Ocean and the eastern South Atlantic Ocean. A typical finding among simulation studies was a persistent cooling of the Pacific, similar to the “La Niña” phenomenon, and, despite the localized nature of the albedo change, an increase in polar sea ice.

  3. Enhanced weathering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_weathering

    Enhanced weathering, also termed ocean alkalinity enhancement when proposed for carbon credit systems, is a process that aims to accelerate the natural weathering by spreading finely ground silicate rock, such as basalt, onto surfaces which speeds up chemical reactions between rocks, water, and air.

  4. Stratospheric aerosol injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stratospheric_aerosol...

    This would introduce aerosols into the stratosphere to create a cooling effect via global dimming and increased albedo, which occurs naturally from volcanic winter. [1] It appears that stratospheric aerosol injection, at a moderate intensity, could counter most changes to temperature and precipitation, take effect rapidly, have low direct ...

    Professor Stephen Hugh Salter, MBE, FRSE (7 December 1938 – 23 February 2024) was a South African-born Scottish academic who was Emeritus Professor of Engineering Design at the University of Edinburgh [1] and inventor of the eponymous Salter's duck wave energy device.

  6. Albedo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albedo

    Albedo (/ æ l ˈ b iː d oʊ / al-BEE-doh; from Latin albedo 'whiteness') is the fraction of sunlight that is diffusely reflected by a body. It is measured on a scale from 0 (corresponding to a black body that absorbs all incident radiation) to 1 (corresponding to a body that reflects all incident radiation).

    Those are called ocean fertilization, ocean alkalinity enhancement, [43] wetland restoration and blue carbon approaches. [41] A detailed analysis needs to be performed to assess how much negative emissions a particular process achieves. This analysis includes life cycle analysis and "monitoring, reporting, and verification" of the entire ...
