Cloud Behaviour on Tidally Locked Rocky Planets from Global High-resolution Modeling

Jun Yang, Yixiao Zhang, Zuntao Fu +6

Determining the behaviour of convection and clouds is one of the biggest challenges in our understanding of exoplanetary climates. Given the lack of in situ observations, one of th…

Convection and Clouds under Different Planetary Gravities Simulated by a Small-domain Cloud-resolving Model

Jiachen Liu, Jun Yang, Yixiao Zhang +1

In this study, we employ a cloud-resolving model (CRM) to investigate how gravity influences convection and clouds in a small-domain (96 km by 96 km) radiative-convective equilibri…

Cloud Feedback on Earth's Long-term Climate Simulated by a Near-global Cloud-permitting Model

Mingyu Yan, Jun Yang, Yixiao Zhang +1

The Sun becomes brighter with time, but Earth's climate is roughly temperate for life during its long-term history; for early Earth, this is known as the Faint Young Sun Problem (F…

How does Background Air Pressure Influence the Inner Edge of the Habitable Zone for Tidally Locked Planets in a 3D View?

Yixiao Zhang, Jun Yang

We examine the effect of varying background N2 surface pressure (labelled as pN2) on the inner edge of the habitable zone for 1:1 tidally locked planets around M dwarfs, using the…

Small Sensitivity of the Simulated Climate of Tidally Locked Aquaplanets to Model Resolution

Mengyu Wei, Yixiao Zhang, Jun Yang

Tidally locked terrestrial planets around low-mass stars are the prime targets of finding potentially habitable exoplanets. Several atmospheric general circulation models have been…
