Reduced atmospheres of post-impact worlds: The early Earth
J. P. Itcovitz, A. S. P. Rae, R. I. Citron +4
Impacts may have had a significant effect on the atmospheric chemistry of the early Earth. Reduced phases in the impactor (e.g., metallic iron) can reduce the planet's HO inven…
Evolution of the Earth's Atmosphere during Late Veneer Accretion
Catriona A. Sinclair, Mark C. Wyatt, Alessandro Morbidelli +1
Recent advances in our understanding of the dynamical history of the Solar system have altered the inferred bombardment history of the Earth during accretion of the Late Veneer, af…
Susceptibility of planetary atmospheres to mass loss and growth by planetesimal impacts: the impact shoreline
M. C. Wyatt, Q. Kral, C. A. Sinclair
This paper considers how planetesimal impacts affect planetary atmospheres. Atmosphere evolution depends on the ratio of gain from volatiles to loss from atmosphere stripping f_v;…
