A research roadmap for assessing the feasibility of warming Mars
E. S. Kite, A. Essunfeld, M. H. Hecht +22
This roadmap outlines research pathways to determine whether Mars could be warmed with non-biological methods. It does not presuppose that warming Mars is desirable; its purpose is…
Modelling the long-term impacts of artificial warming on the Martian water cycle and surface ice distribution
Ashwin S. Braude, Edwin S. Kite, Mark I. Richardson +2
Recent papers by Ansari et al. (2024, Science Advances 10, eadn4650) and Richardson et al. (2025, arXiv eprint 2504.01455) have suggested that global warming of the Martian surface…
Pyrocast: a Machine Learning Pipeline to Forecast Pyrocumulonimbus (PyroCb) Clouds
Kenza Tazi, Emiliano Díaz Salas-Porras, Ashwin Braude +5
Pyrocumulonimbus (pyroCb) clouds are storm clouds generated by extreme wildfires. PyroCbs are associated with unpredictable, and therefore dangerous, wildfire spread. They can also…
Identifying the Causes of Pyrocumulonimbus (PyroCb)
Emiliano Díaz Salas-Porras, Kenza Tazi, Ashwin Braude +5
A first causal discovery analysis from observational data of pyroCb (storm clouds generated from extreme wildfires) is presented. Invariant Causal Prediction was used to develop to…
No detection of SO2, H2S, or OCS in the atmosphere of Mars from the first two Martian years of observations from TGO/ACS
Ashwin S. Braude, F. Montmessin, K. S. Olsen +13
The detection of sulphur species in the Martian atmosphere would be a strong indicator of volcanic outgassing from the surface of Mars. We wish to establish the presence of SO2, H2…
Colour and Tropospheric Cloud Structure of Jupiter from MUSE/VLT: Retrieving a Universal Chromophore
Ashwin S. Braude, Patrick G. J. Irwin, Glenn S. Orton +1
Recent work by Sromovsky et al. (2017, Icarus 291, 232-244) suggested that all red colour in Jupiter's atmosphere could be explained by a single colour-carrying compound, a so-call…
Latitudinal variation in the abundance of methane (CH4) above the clouds in Neptune's atmosphere from VLT/MUSE Narrow Field Mode Observations
Patrick G. J. Irwin, Daniel Toledo, Ashwin S. Braude +5
Observations of Neptune, made in 2018 using the new Narrow Field Adaptive Optics mode of the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) instrument at the Very Large Telescope (VLT) f…
Analysis of gaseous ammonia (NH) absorption in the visible spectrum of Jupiter - Update
Patrick G. J. Irwin, Neil Bowles, Ashwin S. Braude +5
An analysis of currently available ammonia (NH) visible-to-near-infrared gas absorption data was recently undertaken by Irwin et al. (Icarus, 302 (2018) 426) to help interpret…
