Increased insolation threshold for runaway greenhouse processes on Earth like planets
Jérémy Leconte, François Forget, Benjamin Charnay +2
Because the solar luminosity increases over geological timescales, Earth climate is expected to warm, increasing water evaporation which, in turn, enhances the atmospheric greenhou…
Exploring the faint young Sun problem and the possible climates of the Archean Earth with a 3-D GCM
Benjamin Charnay, François Forget, Robin Wordsworth +4
Different solutions have been proposed to solve the "faint young Sun problem", defined by the fact that the Earth was not fully frozen during the Archean despite the fainter Sun. M…
Atmospheric Circulation of Terrestrial Exoplanets
Adam P. Showman, Robin D. Wordsworth, Timothy M. Merlis +1
The investigation of planets around other stars began with the study of gas giants, but is now extending to the discovery and characterization of super-Earths and terrestrial plane…
Water loss from terrestrial planets with CO2-rich atmospheres
Robin Wordsworth, Raymond Pierrehumbert
Water photolysis and hydrogen loss from the upper atmospheres of terrestrial planets is of fundamental importance to climate evolution but remains poorly understood in general. Her…
