I participated in this report by UNESCO, titled Who Bears the Costs? Addressing inequalities from climate change and climate action", published around two months ago. I designed three climate exposure and vulnerabiliy indices, which I'll explain in further posts.

I created my Github website four years ago and never really used it. I've now updated it with my research and conferences, and reposted some writing I've done on some other sites. I hope to keep it up to date more often.

Scaling patterns give us a glimpse of the regional impacts of geoengineering. Precipitation is particularly problematic, with both strong wetting and drying (and model disagreement) in the tropics. This is the percentage change in precipitation for every degree in global temperature reduced by SAI.

Pattern scaling, the focus of our paper, allows us to generate maps of temperature or precipitation anomalies for geoengineering scenarios using only global temperature increase due to GHGs and tenperature reduction due to aerosol injection. Custom scenarios can be modelled using climate emulators.

This paragraph summarizes our motivations for researching SRM modelling, especially this phrase:

"while simulations show geoengineering is successful in dampening global average temperature increase, regional and local impacts … on the Earth system and the global economy might offset the benefits"

The world has warmed by 0.59°C since the Paris Agreement was signed at COP21 in 2015.

For example, the world has warmed 1.15°C since Wonderwall by Oasis was released in 1995.

Mexico is warming faster than the global average. Our first estimations using GISTEMP show a 2.14°C 2024 anomaly and a 1.8°C climatological increase with respect to 1900-1930 (low effort screenshot for the preliminary data haha)
