"Stratospheric Aerosol Geoengineering (SAG) is a proposed #SolarGeoengineering approach to offset #ClimateChange impacts, but may have -ve effects on hydrology."

In this regard new study is published in "πΆπ‘™π‘–π‘šπ‘Žπ‘‘π‘’ π·π‘¦π‘›π‘Žπ‘šπ‘–π‘π‘ ."

"Using a climate model, researchers quantify the sensitivity of the tropical monsoon precipitation to the meridional distribution of volcanic #SulfateAerosols prescribed in the #stratosphere in terms of the changes in aerosol optical depth (AOD)."

"In the experiments, large changes in summer monsoon 🌧️ in the tropical monsoon areas are simulated, mainly over the Indian region, in alliance with meridional shifts in the location of the intertropical convergence zone caused by changes in interhemispheric AOD differences."

A recent study funded by @DegreesNGO, executed by @peteirvine & others aims "to assess the impact of #SAG on Sea Surface Temperature (SST) in the Gulf of Guinea & its causes using GLENS simulations performed under high anthropogenic emission scenario (RCP8.5)."

"Study focus on two dynamically different regions:
πŸ”ΈSassandra Upwelling in CΓ΄te d’Ivoire (SUC, located east of Cape Palmas)
πŸ”ΈTakoradi Upwelling in Ghana (TUG, located east of Cape Three Points)"

Results show that "in the SUC region, under climate change, there is an increase in SST (referred to as the current climate) all year long (by 1.52 Β°C on average) mainly due to an < in net heat flux (lead by the > in longwave radiation) & also in weak vertical mixing."
