Toward practical stratospheric aerosol albedo modification: Solar-powered lofting
“…the injected aerosols are radiatively active. CARMA tracks two groups of aerosols. The first group consists of pure sulfate with 20 size bins, ranging from 0.2 nm to 1.3m in radius. The second group consists of internal mixtures (with the core-shell approximation) including organics, sulfate, dust, sea salt, and BC, ranging from 0.5 to 8.7m in radius.” p.6
