The G4Foam Experiment: Global Climate Impacts of Regional Ocean Albedo 
Modification
by Corey J. Gabriel, Alan Robock, Lili Xia, and Brian Zambri
http://www.atmos-chem-phys-discuss.net/acp-2016-849/
Short Summary: The National Center for Atmospheric Research CESM-CAM4-CHEM 
global climate model was modified to simulate a scheme in which the albedo of 
the ocean surface is raised over the subtropical ocean gyres in the Southern 
Hemisphere. Global mean surface temperature in G4Foam is 0.6 K lower than 
RCP6.0, with statistically significant cooling relative to RCP6.0 south of 30°N 
and an increase in rainfall over land, most pronouncedly during the JJA season, 
relative to both G4SSA and RCP6.0.
