Effects:
First 1 to 3 months:
- 10 to 25 % of soot injected is immediately removed by precipitation, while the rest is transported over the globe over in 1 to 2 weeks.
Figures for July smoke injection:
- 220 C drop in mid-latitudes
- 100 C drop in humid climates
- 75% increase in rainfall in mid-latitudes
- Light level reduction of 0% in low latitudes to 90% in high smoke areas.
Figures for winter smoke injection:
Temperature drops to between 30 and 40 C
Effects over following 1 to 3 years
- 25 to 40% of injected smoke is stabilized in the atmosphere.
- Land temperature of several degrees below normal
- Ocean surface temperature between 20 and 60 C
- Ozone depletion of 50% leading to 200% increase in UV radiation incident on surface.
