Imminent loss of NASA's Aura and Canada's SCISAT will severely diminish scientists’ ability to monitor ozone-depleting substances in the stratosphere.

Research has been well underway into this unexpected approach. Thus far, stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) of solid particles works better than sulfur dioxide for climate intervention.

The software also predicted how the aerosols would settle to the ground and whether they would clump together in the atmosphere. It demonstrated that diamond dust was the best option.
