AGU 2016. “Multi-disciplinary Assessments of Radiation Management Geoengineering”
****************************************************************************************************
We invite you to join invited speakers Jon Egill Kristjansson (University of Oslo) and Nancy Tuana (Penn State University) and submit a presentation to our Fall AGU Session, “Multi-disciplinary Assessments of Radiation Management Geoengineering,” Session ID#: 12669, Primary Section/Focus Group: GC
Conveners: Ben Kravitz, Alan Robock, Simone Tilmes, Trude Storelvmo
Session Description:
Geoengineering
(also known as climate engineering) is receiving increasing
amounts of attention
and may become an important part of the discussion about how
society will
address climate change. There are numerous proposed ideas that
fall under the
umbrella of Radiation Management Geoengineering (abbreviated
geoengineering
here), including idealized solar reduction, stratospheric
aerosols, marine
cloud brightening, surface albedo modification, and cirrus cloud
thinning. In
this session, we explore the latest discoveries in geoengineering
research, as
well as the broader context of geoengineering as a potential means
of
addressing climate change. Example topics could include
(1) Climate model simulations of geoengineering
(2) Integrated assessment modeling of potential roles of
geoengineering
(3) How geoengineering could affect vulnerability and resilience
to climate
change
(4) Impacts assessment studies of geoengineering
(5) Engineering assessments of the potentials, limitations, and
feasibility of
geoengineering
(6) Analogues of geoengineering
(7) Roles of field experiments and their potential designs
(8) Social, political, and ethical assessments of geoengineering
Deadline is 3 August, 11:59 P.M. EDT
