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…
3D climate modeling of close-in land planets: Circulation patterns, climate moist bistability and habitability
Jérémy Leconte, Francois Forget, Benjamin Charnay +3
The inner edge of the classical habitable zone is often defined by the critical flux needed to trigger the runaway greenhouse instability. This 1D notion of a critical flux, howeve…
