Is the faint young Sun problem for Earth solved?

Benjamin Charnay, Eric T. Wolf, Bernard Marty +1

Stellar evolution models predict that the solar luminosity was lower in the past, typically 20-25 % lower during the Archean (3.8-2.5 Ga). Despite the fainter Sun, there is strong…

A study of daytime convective vortices and turbulence in the martian Planetary Boundary Layer based on half-a-year of InSight atmospheric measurements and Large-Eddy Simulations

Aymeric Spiga, Naomi Murdoch, Ralph Lorenz +11

Studying the atmospheric Planetary Boundary Layer (PBL) is crucial to understand the climate of a planet. The meteorological measurements by the instruments onboard InSight at a la…

Impact of gravity waves on the middle atmosphere of Mars: a non-orographic gravity wave parameterization based on Global Climate modeling and MCS observations

G. Gilli, F. Forget, A. Spiga +7

The impact of gravity waves (GW) on diurnal tides and the global circulation in the middle/upper atmosphere of Mars is investigated using a General Circulation Model (GCM). We have…

The high-energy environment and atmospheric escape of the mini-Neptune K2-18 b

Leonardo A. dos Santos, David Ehrenreich, Vincent Bourrier +6

K2-18 b is a transiting mini-Neptune that orbits a nearby (38 pc) cool M3 dwarf and is located inside its region of temperate irradiation. We report on the search for hydrogen esca…
