Reviewer 2 does geoengineering

Reviewer 2 quibbles with actual experts in Solar Radiation Modification and Carbon Dioxide Removal, before rejecting their work on spurious, spiteful and capricious grounds. You'd expect nothing less from R2.

    Is OIF undead? - Buesseler

    In this spooky Halloween episode, @geoengineering1 and Ken Buesseler investigate alleged sightings of Ocean Iron Fertilisation - which is rumoured to have risen from its unquiet grave. Paper: Next steps for assessing ocean iron fertilization for marine carbon dioxide removal. https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/climate/articles/10.3389/fclim.2024.1430957

    Is cirrus thinning dead? Jeggle

    Kai Jeggle explains to @geoengineering1 how off-target effects of cirrus cloud thinning mean that it can never be used effectively. Paper; Jeggle, K., Neubauer, D., Binder, H., and Lohmann, U.: Cirrus formation regimes – Data driven identification and quantification of mineral dust effect, EGUsphere [preprint], https://doi.org/10.5194/egusphere-2024-2559, 2024.

    Wood Vaulting - Zeng

    Got wood? Looking for somewhere to stick it? Ning Zeng can solve your problem! @geoengineering1 learns all about how to do it properly. Zeng, N., Hausmann, H. Wood Vault: remove atmospheric CO2 with trees, store wood for carbon sequestration for now and as biomass, bioenergy and carbon reserve for the future. Carbon Balance Manage 17, 2 (2022). https://doi.org/10.1186/s13021-022-00202-0

    Coastal enhanced weathering - Geerts

    Do not adjust your set; the fidelity of this recording is particularly poor. Luna Geerts and @geoengineering1 discuss coastal enhanced weathering of olivine. The paper is/was open to review, here. https://egusphere.copernicus.org/preprints/2024/egusphere-2024-1824/

    Near term Arctic SRM - Wake Smith

    What would a mid-century polar geoengineering program look like? What airports and aircraft would be needed - and at what cost? Wake Smith answers all these questions.

    Extra-tropical cyclones - Reboita

    How does SAI affect extra-tropical cyclones? Michelle Simões Reboita explains during a tight interview slot, but @geoengineering1 fails to understand (it takes him at least an hour to understand ANYTHING). With fluency approaching that of the Trump Biden debate, he stumbles through the episode, only occasionally realising where he is and what he's doing. Can anyone do a better job? Please tweet us, if you can... Please? Paper: Response of the Southern Hemisphere extratropical cyclone climatology to climate intervention with stratospheric aerosol injection. https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/2752-5295/ad519e/meta
