Inspired by the effect of the fires in Australia in 2019 and 2020, a team of scientists propose to inject aerosols into the Pacific to form marine clouds that reflect more sunlight and produce a temporary coolingHemeroteca - In the Pacific islands that already suffer a dramatic advance of the ‘Superchild’: “This is a warning for the rest of the world” While forecasts warn of the arrival of the most intense El Niño phenomenon in history, some sci…

The article "Geoengineering: El Niño could be mitigated with targeted intervention" was published on July 9 in the former renowned science magazine Heise. In this article we learn that a US team of scientists claims that "one can intervene safely and "without unforeseeable risks". El Niño is a natural climate phenomenon that affects the weather worldwide. Anyone who has studied the weather reports in recent years knows above all one thing: that …

Know what the brightness of sea clouds is, how this solar geoengineering technique works, and why scientists believe it could reduce the effects of “El Niño”.

Researchers say that geoengineering, like the dimming of the sun, could weaken the climate phenomenon of El Niño by lightening marine clouds and thus reduce extreme weather events. But not all experts are convinced.read more on t3n.de

According to scientists, there could be a means of geo-engineering for El Niño to do less damage. The addition of aerosols in the atmosphere of a particular part of the Pacific Ocean can increase and lighten clouds in the region, thus creating a cooling effect. New computer simulations show that this can trigger atmospheric changes [...]
