Circumpolar ocean stability on Mars 3 Gy ago

Schmidt F., Way M. J., Costard F. +3

What was the nature of the Late Hesperian climate? Warm and wet or cold and dry? Formulated this way the question leads to an apparent paradox since both options seem implausible.…

The CO Profile and Analytical Model for the Pioneer Venus Large Probe Neutral Mass Spectrometer

Rakesh Mogul, Sanjay S. Limaye, Michael. J. Way

We present a significantly updated CO altitude profile for Venus (64.2-0.9 km) and provide support for a potential deep lower atmospheric haze of particles (17 km and lower). W…

Large-scale Volcanism and the Heat Death of Terrestrial Worlds

M. J. Way, Richard E. Ernst, Jeffrey D. Scargle

Large-scale volcanism has played a critical role in the long-term habitability of Earth. Contrary to widely held belief, volcanism, rather than impactors, has had the greatest infl…

Early habitability and crustal decarbonation of a stagnant-lid Venus

Dennis Höning, Philipp Baumeister, John Lee Grenfell +2

Little is known about the early evolution of Venus and a potential habitable period during the first one billion years. In particular, it remains unclear whether or not plate tecto…

The TRAPPIST-1 Habitable Atmosphere Intercomparison (THAI). Part III: Simulated Observables -- The return of the spectrum

Thomas J. Fauchez, Geronimo L. Villanueva, Denis E. Sergeev +11

The TRAPPIST-1 Habitable Atmosphere Intercomparison (THAI) is a community project that aims to quantify how dfferences in general circulation models (GCMs) could impact the climate…

The TRAPPIST-1 Habitable Atmosphere Intercomparison (THAI). Part II: Moist Cases -- The Two Waterworlds

Denis E. Sergeev, Thomas J. Fauchez, Martin Turbet +11

To identify promising exoplanets for atmospheric characterization and to make the best use of observational data, a thorough understanding of their atmospheres is needed. 3D genera…
