The Effect of Planetary Rotation Period on Clouds in a Global Climate Model with a Bin Microphysics Scheme
Huanzhou Yang, Eric T. Wolf, Cheng-Cheng Liu +3
Clouds are the largest source of uncertainty in climate simulations. For exoplanets, cloud simulation is particularly challenging because of the lack of observational data to tune…
Seafloor Weathering and Stochastic Outgassing Unlikely to Significantly Shorten the Future Lifespan of Earth's Terrestrial Biosphere
Livia Zhu, R. J. Graham, Dorian S. Abbot
Current understanding suggests that as the Sun brightens in the far future, Earth's carbonate-silicate cycle will offset increasing temperatures by drawing CO out of the atmosp…
Snowball Bistability Vanishes at Moderate Orbital Eccentricity
Xuan Ji, Dorian S. Abbot
Snowball episodes are associated with increases in atmospheric oxygen and the complexity of life on Earth, and they may be essential for the development of complex life on exoplane…
Ocean Tides on Asynchronously Rotating Planets Orbiting Low-mass Stars
Jiaru Shi, Jun Yang, Dorian S. Abbot +3
Planets in the liquid-water habitable zone of low-mass stars experience large tidal forces, to times those on Earth, due to the small distance between the habitable z…
Clouds can enhance direct imaging detection of O2 and O3 on terrestrial exoplanets
Huanzhou Yang, Michelle Hu, Dorian S. Abbot
Clouds are often considered a highly uncertain barrier for detecting biosignatures on exoplanets, especially given intuition gained from transit surveys. However, for direct imagin…
Climate Bistability at the Inner Edge of the Habitable Zone due to Runaway Greenhouse and Cloud Feedbacks
Bowen Fan, Da Yang, Dorian S. Abbot
Understanding the climate dynamics at the inner edge of the habitable zone (HZ) is crucial for predicting the habitability of rocky exoplanets. Previous studies using Global Climat…
