The Speed of Interplanetary Shocks Through the Magnetosheath: A Toy Model

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 7, 16 April 2025.
Abstract Before interacting with the magnetosphere, an interplanetary shock travels through the magnetosheath where its speed and shape are modified. Previous studies have reported widely different answers to the question of the speed of an interplanetary shock in the magnetosheath. Observational studies generally answer this question “macroscopically”,

Understanding Super-Earths with MINERVA-Australis at USQ's Mount Kent Observatory [PDF]

, 2018
Super Earths, planets between 5-10 Earth masses, are the most common type of exoplanet known, yet are completely absent from our Solar system. As a result, their detailed properties, compositions, and formation mechanisms are poorly understood.

Water Vapor Spectroscopy and Thermodynamics Constrain Earth's Tropopause Temperature

AGU Advances, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract As Earth warms, the tropopause is expected to rise, but predictions of its temperature change are less certain. Longstanding theories employing “gray” radiation tie the tropopause temperature to outgoing longwave radiation (OLR), but this is in contrast to recent work in which simulations exhibit a Fixed Tropopause Temperature (FiTT) even as ...

Earth and Terrestrial Planet Formation

, 2015
The growth and composition of Earth is a direct consequence of planet formation throughout the Solar System. We discuss the known history of the Solar System, the proposed stages of growth and how the early stages of planet formation may be dominated by ...

Would Adding the Anthropocene to the Geologic Time Scale Matter?

AGU Advances, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Abrupt planetary change forced by the cumulative and overwhelming impacts of human activities in the mid‐twentieth century supports a new geologic epoch, named after Anthropos, the agent of this change. This transformation extends well beyond Holocene norms and is identified in geologic records worldwide.

LETSGO: A spacecraft-based mission to accurately measure the solar angular momentum with frame-dragging

, 2013
LETSGO (LEnse-Thirring Sun-Geo Orbiter) is a proposed space-based mission involving the use of a spacecraft moving along a highly eccentric heliocentric orbit perpendicular to the ecliptic. It aims to accurately measure some important physical properties

Recent Increases in Missouri River Streamflow Driven by Combined Effects of Climate Variability, Land‐Use Change, and Elevated CO2

AGU Advances, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Missouri River streamflow increased substantially during the 20th century, with multiple large floods occurring since 1990. Using land surface models and water budget simulations, we examined the extent to which increased flow was driven by natural climate variability, anthropogenic climate trends, land‐use and land‐cover change (LULCC), and ...
