A Reduced-Order Coupled Oscillator Model for the Emergence of Episodic Convection
Sooman Han, Soong-Ki Kim, Bowen Fan +3
Extreme precipitation is a societal concern, and understanding tropical moist convection is increasingly important in a warming climate. Climate simulations show that, under hothou…
Atmospheric dynamics of IR-active particles released from Mars' surface
Mark I. Richardson, Samaneh Ansari, Bowen Fan +7
Surface release of radiatively active particles, with high infrared- (IR-)to-visible extinction ratios, has been proposed as a method of warming Mars. However, to warm Mars using a…
Extreme Weather Variability on Hot Rocky Exoplanet 55 Cancri e Explained by Magma Temperature-Cloud Feedback
Kaitlyn Loftus, Yangcheng Luo, Bowen Fan +1
Observations of the hot rocky exoplanet 55 Cancri e report significant but unexplained variability in brightness across visible and infrared bands, e.g., on sub-weekly timescales,…
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…
Resilience of Snowball Earth to Stochastic Events
Guillaume Chaverot, Andrea Zorzi, Xuesong Ding +6
Earth went through at least two periods of global glaciation (i.e., ``Snowball Earth'' states) during the Neoproterozoic, the shortest of which (the Marinoan) may not have lasted s…
Why are Mountaintops Cold? The Transition of Surface Lapse Rate on Dry Planets
Bowen Fan, Malte F. Jansen, Michael A. Mischna +1
Understanding surface temperature is important for habitability. Recent work on Mars has found that the dependence of surface temperature on elevation (surface lapse rate) converge…
