An atmospheric general circulation model for Pluto with predictions for New Horizons temperature profiles
Angela M. Zalucha
Results are presented from a 3-D Pluto general circulation model (GCM) that includes conductive heating and cooling, non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (non-LTE) heating by methan…

A 3D general circulation model for Pluto and Triton with fixed volatile abundance and simplified surface forcing
Angela Zalucha, Timothy Michaels
We present a 3D general circulation model of Pluto and Triton's atmospheres, which uses radiative-conductive-convective forcing. In both the Pluto and Triton models, an easterly (p…

An investigation of a super-Earth exoplanet with a greenhouse-gas atmosphere using a general circulation model
Angela M. Zalucha, Timothy I. Michaels, Nikku Madhusudhan
We use the Massachusetts Institute of Technology general circulation model (GCM) dynamical core, in conjunction with a Newtonian relaxation scheme that relaxes to a gray, analytica…
