Greetings, natural scientists,
I am looking for a mechanism with which lower tropospheric temperature may be controlled.
I am not looking for CO2 offsets. An example of what I'm looking for is tropospheric aerosols, which are most responsible for reflecting sunlight back into space. Or, airplane contrails, which have a net cooling effect when present at night.
I have degrees in computer science and economics, and an answer that slants in those directions would be most appreciated. For example, I'd be interested in how aerosol production (burning biomass, car exhausts, etc) could be increased or decreased to heat or cool surface temperatures. Suggestions for computer simulations also appreciated.
This is for an elective metereology class thesis. My background in the natural sciences is limited.
Thank-you,
Robert
