Episode Synopsis

Bala schools @geoengineering1 on the mechanisms behind the monsoon (Inter Tropical Convergence Zone, Indian Ocean Dipole, etc.), then explains what might go wrong if SAI is only done in the Northern Hemisphere. Paper: "Quantification of tropical monsoon precipitation changes in terms of interhemispheric differences in stratospheric sulfate aerosol optical depth" (https://www.researchgate.net/publication/370468285_Quantification_of_tropical_monsoon_precipitation_changes_in_terms_of_interhemispheric_differences_in_stratospheric_sulfate_aerosol_optical_depth
