Environmental Research Letters, November. https://doi.org/10.1088/1748-9326/ab5c3e. "Through a structured review, we find that all IAMs communicate wider system assumptions and major cost assumptions transparently. This quality however fades as we dig deeper into modelling details."

Jiang, Jiu, Long Cao, Douglas G. MacMartin, Isla R. Simpson, Ben Kravitz, Wei Cheng, Daniele Visioni, Simone Tilmes, Jadwiga H. Richter, and Michael J. Mills (2019): Stratospheric Sulfate Aerosol Geoengineering Could Alter the High Latitude Seasonal Cycle. Geophysical Research Letters, December. https://doi.org/10.1029/2019gl085758. "Here we use the Stratospheric Aerosol Geoengineering Large Ensemble (GLENS) simulations to explore the effects of SAG on the seasonal cycle of climate change. Simulations show that relative to the present‐day climate, SAG diminishes the amplitude of the seasonal cycle of temperature at many high‐latitude locations, with warmer winters and cooler summers."

Craik, Neil and William C.G. Burns (2019): Climate Engineering Under the Paris Agreement. In Environmental Law Reporter 49 (12), November 27, 2019. https://elr.info/news-analysis/49/11113/climate-engineering-under-paris-agreement. "In light of the prominent, albeit contested, role that CE is likely to play in international climate policy, this Article analyzes the specific provisions of the Paris Agreement with a view to assessing the extent to which the Agreement can provide an institutional framework to effectively govern CE internationally, and how it may shape the development and implementation of CE options."
