Cosmic-ray strangelets in the Earth’s atmosphere

If strange quark matter is stable in small lumps, we expect to find such lumps, called “strangelets”, on Earth due to a steady flux in cosmic rays. Based on recent model predictions for this flux, we find that strangelets corresponding to gaseous elements (noble gases, N, and O) accumulate in the atmosphere at high concentration. Metallic and semimetallic strangelets accumulate in suprisingly h...

Stratospheric controlled perturbation experiment: a small-scale experiment to improve understanding of the risks of solar geoengineering

Although solar radiation management (SRM) through stratospheric aerosol methods has the potential to mitigate impacts of climate change, our current knowledge of stratospheric processes suggests that these methods may entail significant risks. In addition to the risks associated with current knowledge, the possibility of 'unknown unknowns' exists that could significantly alter the risk assessme...

CALIPSO observations of stratospheric aerosols: a preliminary assessment

We have examined the 532-nm aerosol backscatter coefficient measurements by the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations (CALIPSO) for their use in the monitoring of stratospheric aerosol. CALIPSO makes observations that span from 82 S to 82 N each day and, for each profile, backscatter coefficient values reported up to ∼40 km. The possibility of using CALIPSO for stra...

Stratospheric Loading of Sulfur from Explosive Volcanic Eruptions1

This paper is an attempt to measure our understanding of volcano/atmosphere interactions by comparing a box model of potential volcanogenic aerosol production and removal in the stratosphere with the stratospheric aerosol optical depth over the period of 1979 to 1994. Model results and observed data are in good agreement both in magnitude and removal rates for the two largest eruptions, El Chic...

Changes in reactive stratospheric gases due to a change in BrewerDobson circulation: results from a simple model

Amounts of source gases with stratospheric sinks (CFCs, N2O, CH4) are affected by changes in Brewer–Dobson circulation. Source gases and their degradation products are important for atmospheric chemistry and climate. With a simple model, we examine how amounts and lifetimes of source gases and products depend on speed of the circulation. Transient results differ from steady-state and stratosphe...
