The Climatic Effects of Hygroscopic Growth of Sulfate Aerosols in the Stratosphere

Abstract Solar geoengineering by deliberate injection of sulfate aerosols in the stratosphere is one of the proposed options to counter anthropogenic climate warming. In this study, we focus on the effect of a specific microphysical property of sulfate aerosols in the stratosphere: hygroscopic growt...
