termination effect, what on earth causes it in a system

Dear ffpycm,

termination risk is determined by scientific and political factors, namely:

- the gap in radiative forcing between the forcing due to A) current greenhouse gas levels (W/m2 resulting from concentrations of CO2equivalents in parts per million) and B) the resulting radiative forcing due to artificial intervention via SRM.

- the stability of the political regime that supports that level of (ongoing) SRM deployment.

The latter is arguably a way more complex aspect of the termination risk, but arguably several factors to it can be identified (e.g. level of support by a sufficiently powerful coalition of the deploying and existence of appropriate measures – e.g. compensation and adaptation payments for those countries not fully supporting the chosen (form/level) of deployment.

For more information come and discuss with me during the poster session. Cheers, Matthias (honegger@perspectives.cc)
