abstract: "Artificial Glacier Buffer Replacement (AGBR) science -- proglacial reservoirs, sedimentation limits, Managed Aquifer Recharge, floating-solar evaporation mitigation, and the real mass-balance ceiling on full replacement (Farinotti et al. 2016), plus a clearly-flagged speculative Resilience Replacement Factor / scenario layer. Deliberately no UTAC/CREP/AFET bridge. GenesisAeon P100, companion to glacier-buffer-utac (P99)."
