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 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…
Habitable Climate Scenarios for Proxima Centauri b With a Dynamic Ocean
Anthony D. Del Genio, Michael J. Way, David S. Amundsen +4
The nearby exoplanet Proxima Centauri b will be a prime future target for characterization, despite questions about its retention of water. Climate models with static oceans sugges…
Resolving Orbital and Climate Keys of Earth and Extraterrestrial Environments with Dynamics 1.0: A General Circulation Model for Simulating the Climates of Rocky Planets
M. J. Way, Igor Aleinov, David. S. Amundsen +8
Resolving Orbital and Climate Keys of Earth and Extraterrestrial Environments with Dynamics (ROCKE-3D) is a 3-Dimensional General Circulation Model (GCM) developed at the NASA Godd…
High-order accurate finite-volume formulations for the pressure gradient force in layered ocean models
Darren Engwirda, Maxwell Kelley, John Marshall
The development of a set of high-order accurate finite-volume formulations for evaluation of the pressure gradient force in layered ocean models is described. A pair of new schemes…
Was Venus the First Habitable World of our Solar System?
Michael J. Way, Anthony D. Del Genio, Nancy Y. Kiang +5
Present-day Venus is an inhospitable place with surface temperatures approaching 750K and an atmosphere over 90 times as thick as present day Earth's. Billions of years ago the pic…
A WENO-type slope-limiter for a family of piecewise polynomial methods
Darren Engwirda, Maxwell Kelley
A new, high-order slope-limiting procedure for the Piecewise Parabolic Method (PPM) and the Piecewise Quartic Method (PQM) is described. Following a Weighted Essentially Non-Oscill…
Exploring the Inner Edge of the Habitable Zone with Fully Coupled Oceans
M. J. Way, A. D. Del Genio, M. Kelley +2
Rotation in planetary atmospheres plays an important role in regulating atmospheric and oceanic heat flow, cloud formation and precipitation. Using the Goddard Institute for Space…
Dangerous human-made interference with climate: A GISS modelE study
J. Hansen, M. Sato, R. Ruedy +44
We investigate the issue of "dangerous human-made interference with climate" using simulations with GISS modelE driven by measured or estimated forcings for 1880-2003 and extended…
