Toward Marine Cloud Brightening at Scale: A Science Agenda

by Ana Barros 30 April 202629 April 2026

Marine Cloud Brightening (MCB) is a Solar Radiation Management (SRM) solution to cool the planet by changing the albedo of low-altitude marine clouds to increase reflected shortwave radiation.

More Braided Rivers from Increasing Flow Variability

by Alberto Montanari 22 April 20261 May 2026

Global analysis of satellite data and river flow records show that higher flow intermittency after climate change may lead to an increasing number of threads in braided rivers, thus impacting ecosystems.

A large, round, glowing yellow shape is shown at right (the Sun), and a smaller, reddish-brown sphere is at left (Mars). Pale yellow streaks and thicker curving white lines radiate from the Sun in all directions. Mars appears to disrupt the flow of the pale yellow streaks, which deflect around it like water flowing around a pebble in a stream.
