The role of boundary‐layer friction in modulating midlatitude heatwaves
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, Volume 151, Issue 768, April 2025 Part A.Boundary‐layer friction associated with different surface types plays an important role in modulating heatwaves in the midlatitudes. The main changes in heatwave features occur when locally modifying boundary‐layer friction along the jet‐stream axis. Real‐world differences in the occurrence of heatwaves between different locations in the midlatitudes ...

Bayesian Methods for Exoplanet Science
, 2017 Exoplanet research is carried out at the limits of the capabilities of current telescopes and instruments. The studied signals are weak, and often embedded in complex systematics from instrumental, telluric, and astrophysical sources.

This review article delves into the study of low-mass exoplanets: super-Earths, mini-Neptunes and the new categories within and between that we are starting to discover. We provide an overview of current exoplanet observational capabilities, their limitations, and what they are allowing us to learn about low-mass planets.

Observations of Exoplanet Atmospheres
, 2015 Detailed characterization of an extrasolar planet's atmosphere provides the best hope for distinguishing the makeup of its outer layers, and the only hope for understanding the interplay between initial composition, chemistry, dynamics & circulation, and

Nitrates as a Potential N Supply for Microbial Ecosystems in a Hyperarid Mars Analog System
Life, 2019 Nitrate is common in Mars sediments owing to long-term atmospheric photolysis, oxidation, and potentially, impact shock heating. The Atacama Desert in Chile, which is the driest region on Earth and rich in nitrate deposits, is used as a Mars analog in ...

Classification of Planetary Motion around Super-Jupiters and Brown Dwarfs
UniverseWe investigate the orbital dynamics of an exosystem consisting of a solar-mass host star, a transiting body, and an Earth-size exoplanet within the framework of the generalized three-body problem.

A Quantitative Comparison of Exoplanet Catalogs
Geosciences, 2018 In this study, we investigated the differences between four commonly-used exoplanet catalogs (exoplanet.eu; exoplanetarchive.ipac.caltech.edu; openexoplanetcatalogue.com; exoplanets.org) using a Kolmogorov–Smirnov (KS) test.

Mapping out the time-evolution of exoplanet processes [PDF]
, 2019 There are many competing theories and models describing the formation, migration and evolution of exoplanet systems. As both the precision with which we can characterize exoplanets and their host stars, and the number of systems for which we can make ...
