The Acceleration of Superrotation in Simulated Hot Jupiter Atmospheres
Florian Debras, Nathan Mayne, Isabelle Baraffe +5
Context. Atmospheric superrotating flows at the equator are an almost ubiquitous result of simulations of hot Jupiters, and a theory explaining how this zonally coherent flow reach…
Eigenvectors, Circulation and Linear Instabilities for Planetary Science in 3 Dimensions (ECLIPS3D)
Florian Debras, Nathan Mayne, Isabelle Baraffe +2
Context. The study of linear waves and instabilities is necessary to understand the physical evolution of an atmosphere, and can provide physical interpretation of the complex flow…
Results from a set of three-dimensional numerical experiments of a hot Jupiter atmosphere
N. J. Mayne, F. Debras, I. Baraffe +7
We present highlights from a large set of simulations of a hot Jupiter atmosphere, nominally based on HD 209458b, aimed at exploring both the evolution of the deep atmosphere, and…
The UM, a fully--compressible, non--hydrostatic, deep atmosphere GCM, applied to hot Jupiters
N. J. Mayne, I. Baraffe, David M. Acreman +6
We are adapting the Global Circulation Model (GCM) of the UK Met Office, the so--called Unified Model (UM), for the study of hot Jupiters. In this work we demonstrate the successfu…
Using the UM dynamical cores to reproduce idealised 3D flows
N. J. Mayne, I. Baraffe, David M. Acreman +5
We demonstrate that both the current (New Dynamics), and next generation (ENDGame) dynamical cores of the UK Met Office global circulation model, the UM, reproduce consistently, th…
