AGNI: A radiative-convective model for lava planet atmospheres
Harrison Nicholls, Raymond Pierrehumbert, Tim Lichtenberg
It is important that we are able to accurately model the atmospheres of (exo)planets. This is because atmospheres play a central role in setting a planet's thermochemical environme…
Absence of a Runaway Greenhouse Limit on Lava Planets
Iris D. Boer, Harrison Nicholls, Tim Lichtenberg
Climate transitions on exoplanets offer valuable insights into the atmospheric processes governing planetary habitability. Previous pure-steam atmospheric models show a thermal lim…
Self-limited tidal heating and prolonged magma oceans in the L 98-59 system
Harrison Nicholls, Claire Marie Guimond, Hamish C. F. C. Hay +3
Rocky exoplanets accessible to characterisation often lie on close-in orbits where tidal heating within their interiors is significant, with the L 98-59 planetary system being a pr…
Convective shutdown in the atmospheres of lava worlds
Harrison Nicholls, Raymond T. Pierrehumbert, Tim Lichtenberg +2
Atmospheric energy transport is central to the cooling of primordial magma oceans. Theoretical studies of atmospheres on lava planets have assumed that convection is the only proce…
Magma ocean evolution at arbitrary redox state
Harrison Nicholls, Tim Lichtenberg, Dan J. Bower +1
Interactions between magma oceans and overlying atmospheres on young rocky planets leads to an evolving feedback of outgassing, greenhouse forcing, and mantle melt fraction. Previo…
