Geoengineering may slow Greenland ice sheet loss

Tuesday, January 30, 2024

SAPPORO, Japan, Jan. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- One of the many effects of global warming is sea-level rise due to the melting and retreat of the Earth's ice sheets and glaciers as well as other sources. As the sea level rises, large areas of densely populated coastal land could ultimately become uninhabitable without extensive coastal modification. In order to stave off this possibility, carbon emissions need to reach net negative, a state that is hard to achieve under current circumstances.

Key Points: 
  • Hokkaido University researchers and colleagues show that stratospheric aerosol injection has the potential to reduce ice sheet loss due to climate change.
  • The simulations showed that SAI of sulfur dioxide would have a clear protective effect on the Greenland Ice Sheet.
  • Under RCP8.5, there would be ice loss equivalent to approximately 90 mm sea-level rise; under RCP4.5, ice loss would be approximately 60.6 mm sea-level rise; but under GeoMIP G4, ice loss would be limited to approximately just 37.6 mm sea-level rise.
  • "While this study shows that SAI could contribute to the protection of the Greenland Ice Sheet, and hence, potentially, all other ice cover on Earth, geoengineering is a highly contentious topic," Greve concludes.
