Structure and dynamics of the summertime atmospheric boundary layer over the Antarctic plateau: 2. Heat, moisture, and momentum budgets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
This paper presents the summertime budgets of heat, moisture and momentum in the atmospheric boundary layer at Kohnen base (75 000S, 0 040E, 2892 m above sea level), located in the interior of East Antarctica.

The Response of Planetary Atmospheres to the Impact of Icy Comets. II. Exo-Earth Analogs

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The orbital regime of a terrestrial planet plays a significant role in shaping its atmospheric dynamics, climate, and hence potential habitability. The orbit is also likely to play a role in shaping the response of a planetary atmosphere to the influx of

The Roasting Marshmallows Program with IGRINS on Gemini South I: Composition and Climate of the Ultrahot Jupiter WASP-18 b

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present high-resolution dayside thermal emission observations of the exoplanet WASP-18 b using IGRINS on Gemini South. We remove stellar and telluric signatures using standard algorithms, and we extract the planet signal via cross-correlation with ...

A Theory for the Global Wind Energy Dissipation Across Climates

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 5, August 2026.
Abstract Atmospheric winds play a key role in shaping climate, ecosystems, and infrastructure. The energy that drives the winds is generated by the atmospheric heat engine. However, traditional entropy‐budget descriptions of this heat engine rely on poorly constrained microscale processes, limiting their predictive power.

A new, high-resolution surface mass balance map of Antarctica (1979-2010) based on regional atmospheric climate modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A new, high resolution (27 km) surface mass balance (SMB) map of the Antarctic ice sheet is presented, based on output of a regional atmospheric climate model that includes snowdrift physics and is forced by the most recent reanalysis data from the ...

Bridging the Atmospheric Circulations of Hot and Warm Giant Exoplanets

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We perform high-resolution atmospheric flow simulations of hot and warm giant exoplanets that are tidally locked. The modeled atmospheres are representative of those on KELT-11 b and WASP-39 b, which possess markedly different equilibrium temperatures ...

Transmission Spectroscopy of the Lowest-density Gas Giant: Metals and a Potential Extended Outflow in HAT-P-67b

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Extremely low-density exoplanets are tantalizing targets for atmospheric characterization because of their promisingly large signals in transmission spectroscopy.

Interactions of Sublimated Frost With Volcanic Plumes: Modeling Io's SO2 Atmosphere Using the DSMC Method

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Io's tenuous atmosphere consists primarily of sulfur dioxide (SO2 ${\text{SO}}_{2}$) with observed column densities of approximately 1016−1017 $1{0}^{16}-1{0}^{17}$ cm−2 ${\text{cm}}^{-2}$. However, it remains uncertain whether the sublimation of SO2 ${\text{SO}}_{2}$ surface frost or volcanic outgassing is the primary source of the SO2 ...

Structure and dynamics of the summertime atmospheric boundary layer over the Antarctic plateau: 1. Measurements and model validation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Profile mast, tethersonde and radiosonde measurements are used to describe the structure and dynamics of the summertime atmospheric boundary layer over the slightly sloping snow surface at Kohnen base (75°00'S, 0°04'E, 2892 m above sea level), located on

Climate-model induced differences in the 21st century global and regional glacier contributions to sea-level rise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The large uncertainty in future global glacier volume projections partly results from a substantial range in future climate conditions projected by global climate models. This study addresses the effect of global and regional differences in climate input
