Proof: Geoengineering FAILED To Stop Hunga Tonga Injecting Planet Warming Water Vapour Into The Stratosphere - IF It Was Happening

There was an interesting paper published back at the end of February, which has only now come to light, in Science Advances.

Scientists have proposed an audacious novel geoengineering technique: intentionally dehydrating the stratosphere.

A study published in Science Advances involves the ambitious and contentious idea of seeding the upper atmosphere with particles to prevent water vapor from entering in the stratosphere.

Water vapor is important because it’s the most abundant greenhouse gas on Earth. The greenhouse effect occurs when gases in the atmosphere trap heat from the sun, keeping the planet livable. Water vapor is made up of complex molecules that absorb heat radiated from the Earth’s surface and re-radiate it back to the planet.

Water vapor is constantly cycling through the atmosphere, evaporating from the Earth’s surface, condensing into clouds, being blown by the wind, and then falling back to the Earth as rain or snow.

Researchers, led by Shuka Schwarz of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), argue that water vapor in the stratosphere plays a critical role in trapping heat from the Earth’s surface.

You don’t have to be Einstein to realise that the totally unprecedented injection of a huge amount of water vapour into the stratosphere by the Hunga Tonga eruption - if indeed “water vapour in the stratosphere plays a critical role in trapping heat from the Earth’s surface” - is going to warm the planet significantly. And yet, any mention in the media (and a lot of the alternative media) of Hunga Tonga in relation to the remarkable jump in global warmth beginning in June 2023, has become effectively verboten. The dumbed down authorised narrative deemed acceptable to spoon feed to the masses is that man-made global warming is mainly responsible, with some contribution from El Nino. Hence, even though the story published in the GP confirms the role of Hunga Tonga for those who can add two and two to get four, there is zero mention of the actual volcano itself.

At Science.org, the press release mentions past natural modest increases in stratospheric water vapour, but it too leaves out any reference to the most recent huge increase in stratospheric water vapour caused by Hunga Tonga. That is nothing but odd.

Given the alarm about rising levels of carbon dioxide and methane, it’s easy to forget that plain old water vapor is a major greenhouse gas, too. It can linger for years in the stratosphere, for example, absorbing heat from the surface and re-emitting it back down. According to one study, a possible jump in stratospheric water during the 1990s may have boosted global warming by up to 30% during that time. But what if you could stop water from getting there in the first place?

That ‘one study’ is the Solomon et al 2010 study which I have talked about in previous posts. The increase in stratospheric water vapour over a longer period cited by Solomon was very modest compared to the Hunga Tonga mass injection. The new study proposes a method of preventing or restricting water vapour getting into the stratosphere and causing global warming by seeding the upper troposphere with ice crystal nucleating aerosols (at this point, the collective cry coming from the chemtrail community is “See, we told you so! That’s what they’ve been doing for years!”)

That’s the idea behind a new geoengineering technique, proposed today in Science Advances. By targeting rising, moist air and seeding it with cloud-forming particles right before it crosses into the stratosphere, geoengineers could cool the world with an intervention far more delicate than other schemes. Drying the stratosphere might take as little as 2 kilograms of material a week, says Shuka Schwarz, the study’s lead author and a research physicist at the Chemical Sciences Lab of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). “That’s an amount of material that helps open the mind to imagine a whole bunch of possibilities.”

So that’s what they’ve been up to with these chemtrails for all these years, it’s obvious. We thought they were ‘spraying us like bugs’ or attempting to block out the sun, but what they were really doing is attempting to prevent water vapour from getting into the stratosphere! But it’s not quite that simple unfortunately. This technique will only be really effective in a small region over the West Pacific about the size of Australia, because that is where most of the moist uplifted air from the troposphere is able to enter the stratosphere.

The scheme relies on a key fact: Only a few places in the world are hot enough to generate the powerful updrafts needed to lift air into the stratosphere, which begins between 9 and 17 kilometers above the surface, depending on latitude. The most important of these portals is found above the western equatorial Pacific Ocean, in a region roughly the size of Australia.

Along its upward journey, much of the water condenses into clouds and rains out of the air. But in the past decade, NASA used a high altitude, jet-powered drone to study the cold layers just below the stratosphere and found plenty of air masses moist enough to form clouds, but lacking in particles that would allow the moisture to condense into ice crystals and ultimately rain. “It’s a question of chance, whether they get to this coldest spot on their journey and there’s enough cloud nuclei left to do anything,” Schwarz says. The NASA studies also found that this moisture was concentrated: Just 1% of the air parcels explored accounted for half of the water that could end up in the stratosphere.

It might take as little as 2 kilos of these aerosols to have an effect in that specific area. This doesn’t sound much like the global operation to spray skies everywhere claimed as reality by the chemtrail people. But you never know, maybe they just got so carried away with the idea that they decided to spray these ice nucleating particles everywhere in order to stop water vapour anywhere getting into the stratosphere. The authors themselves admit that their scheme would only have a modest effect but that it’s worth trying as a package of other methods designed to slow down global warming.

“Intentional stratospheric dehydration,” as it’s called, could only cool the climate moderately, offsetting roughly 1.4% of the warming caused by increased carbon dioxide over the past few hundred years. But for geoengineers who have talked about cooling the planet by loading the stratosphere with thousands of tons of reflective particles, “it’s clearly a new idea,” says Ulrike Lohmann, an atmospheric physicist at ETH Zürich. “This is something that could work.”

That being the case, why would they bother to go to the huge expense of commissioning commercial airlines to spray huge amounts of this stuff daily into the upper troposphere or adulterate their aviation fuel such that it causes far more ice nucleation than previously, in order to create this global artificial cirrus cloud layer which could only ever have a very modest effect on global warming? That doesn’t make sense. Geoengineering can’t be the explanation, so they must just be ‘spraying us like bugs’.

But let’s just suppose for the moment that the intention of chemtrails was to limit hydration of the stratosphere, then it has clearly failed its first real test spectacularly, because Hunga Tonga measurably injected a vast amount of sea water into the stratosphere, at heights never before previously recorded, and most of it is still there, and is probably causing the warmth which we are currently witnessing. In that case, you might have thought that they would have given up the ghost by now, but obviously they haven’t because judging by posts on X, the chemtrails are still proliferating and now they are even causing low lying cloud cover.

I’ll leave you with this quote from the actual paper. The Hunga Tonga water vapour punched straight through the tropical tropopause layer (TTL) in Jan 22, completely oblivious to any geoengineered artificial cirrus cloud layer which may or may not have been in place at the time. It could be up there for another year or two and even if we get a strong La Nina developing later this year, one wonders how much cooling will actually take place given the continuous presence of large amounts of stratospheric water vapour. But March at least looks promising anyway - global simmering looks like it might have come off the boil slightly.

Stratospheric water vapor (WV) is recognized as a contributor to the greenhouse gas effect, with both clear annual cycles and decadal trends with radiative significance (1). In our current climate, reductions in stratospheric water help reduce the radiative forcing (RF) of the Earth system (2). The dominant pathway of WV to the stratosphere is through the tropical tropopause layer (TTL) (3). Here, most stratospheric water enters the overworld after air parcels are “freeze-dried” at the lowest temperatures experienced en route from lower, warmer, wetter altitudes (4, 5). This dehydration often occurs at the so-called “western Pacific cold point” (WCP) (3). Once in the stratosphere, air spends approximately 1 to 4 years circulating to the poles (highly dependent on the specific transport pathway) before returning to the troposphere. WV’s most important radiative effects occur near the tropopause.
