There is a large and untidy collection of papers in the /Climate change folder at www.see.ed.ac.uk/~shs

An ex student from our Informatics school, Graham Sortino, collected climate data from many sources for a Masters thesis. He is at the email above.

There is another collection with an emphasis on Arctic ice at http://www.ameg.me/

Is it technically possible for a top IT specialist to figure out a way to block an endless stream of identical papers on Governance of Geo-engineering or to select only scientific and engineering ones? How much would this cost?

Hi,

I come from a background in information management for large research enterprises and I have the impression from following this group and the literature that the community has not yet come to terms with the scale and complexity of the IT side of what will be required to support first a myriad of diverse and loosely related experiments then possibly global-scale enterprises operating over decadal and centurial (sic? what's the word?) timeframes. The information management alone will truly be a Manhattan, Google or Gates Foundation-scale project. But, baby steps! As a preliminary matter I am carrying out a literature survey on information management for geoengineering, and would appreciate any references on the topic that can be provided to relevant sources in any form, published, prepub, official, unofficial, gray literature, quantitative, qualitative, CDR, SRM, etc.

Cordially,

Fred Zimmerman
