Geoengineering proposals to delay global warming by adding particles into the upper atmosphere to cool the climate might reduce the electricity generated by large solar power plants by as much as one-fifth, according to a new NOAA study.
“The sensitivity of concentrating solar systems to stratospheric particles may seem surprising,” said author Daniel Murphy, a scientist at NOAA’s Earth System Research Laboratory in Boulder, Colo. “But because these systems use only direct sunlight, increasing stratospheric particles has a disproportionately large effect on them.”

Abstract:
Materials property database which allows multiple search routines, including the ability to specify property requirements. Includes coverage of polymers, aluminium and titanic alloys, steels, ceramics and other metals; tables for converting from English to metric units
An international, multidisciplinary index to the literature of science, technology, and biomedicine. Over 4,000 journals representing all scientific disciplines are indexed. The database covers 1900 to the present, and records from January 1991 to the present include abstracts. Cited reference searching is a valuable feature of the database. Science citation index expanded and is available via ISI Web of Knowledge/Web of Science.
Provides a comprehensive index to the published literature in physics, electrical/electronic engineering, computing, control engineering, information technology, production, manufacturing and mechanical engineering as well as materials science, oceanography, nuclear engineering, geophysics, biomedical engineering and biophysics. Coverage begins in 1898
Provides full-image access to the publications of both the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the Institution of Electrical Engineers (IEE); includes all journals, magazines, standards and conference proceedings.
A free federated vertical search portal for 21 professional scholarly societies. Content sources include: three million articles and conference proceedings 50 million patents from the world's major patent offices full-text documents from the US Dept of Energy Information Bridge site
