Climate intervention on a high-emissions pathway could delay but not prevent West Antarctic Ice Sheet demise
J. Sutter, A. Jones, et al.
Discover how stratospheric aerosol injections could impact the stability of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet in this compelling study by J. Sutter, A. Jones, T. L. Frölicher, C. Wirths, and T. F. Stocker. While SRM might delay WAIS collapse under certain emissions scenarios, the authors underscore that the most viable solution remains emissions reduction.
