Albedos, Equilibrium Temperatures, and Surface Temperatures of Habitable Planets
Anthony D. Del Genio, Nancy Y. Kiang, Michael J. Way +8
The potential habitability of known exoplanets is often categorized by a nominal equilibrium temperature assuming a Bond albedo of either 0.3, similar to Earth, or 0. As an indicat…
Climates of Warm Earth-like Planets II: Rotational 'Goldilocks' Zones for Fractional Habitability and Silicate Weathering
Tiffany Jansen, Caleb Scharf, Michael Way +1
Planetary rotation rate has a significant effect on atmospheric circulation, where the strength of the Coriolis effect in part determines the efficiency of latitudinal heat transpo…
Climates of Warm Earth-like Planets I: 3-D Model Simulations
M. J. Way, A. D. Del Genio, I. Aleinov +3
We present a large ensemble of simulations of an Earth-like world with increasing insolation and rotation rate. Unlike previous work utilizing idealized aquaplanet configurations w…
The Inner Solar System's Habitability Through Time
Anthony D. Del Genio, David Brain, Lena Noack +1
Earth, Mars, and Venus, irradiated by an evolving Sun, have had fascinating but diverging histories of habitability. Although only Earth's surface is considered to be habitable tod…
Exoplanet Diversity in the Era of Space-based Direct Imaging Missions
Ravi Kopparapu, Eric Hebrard, Rus Belikov +55
This whitepaper discusses the diversity of exoplanets that could be detected by future observations, so that comparative exoplanetology can be performed in the upcoming era of larg…
