Survey and Modeling of Windblown Ejecta Deposits on Venus

AGU Advances, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2025.
Abstract Venus' thick atmosphere rotates in the same direction as the solid body, but ∼60 times faster. This atmospheric superrotation has produced dozens of windblown ejecta deposits (“parabolas”) on the surface of Venus. The formation and modification of parabolas is an interplay between impacts, aeolian modification, and atmospheric dynamics.

Hot Spot Offset Variability from Magnetohydrodynamical Thermoresistive Instability in Hot Jupiters

The Astrophysical Journal
Hot Jupiter (HJ) atmospheres are possibly subject to a thermoresistive instability (TRI). Such an instability may develop as the ohmic heating increases the electrical conductivity in a positive feedback loop, which ultimately leads to a runaway of the ...

Evidence for a Natural Limit to Electron Space Radiation: An Application of Benford's Law

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Recent research has highlighted observational evidence for a natural limit to the severity of energetic electron differential fluxes in the Van Allen radiation belts. Here, we analyze the occurrence distributions of electron differential fluxes from the entire Van Allen Probes mission (2012–2019) to further investigate the energy dependence of

Radiative Flux from a High-resolution Atmospheric Dynamics Simulation of a Hot Jupiter for JWST and Ariel

The Astrophysical Journal
We present medium-wave (∼0.5–13 μ m) radiative flux distributions and spectra derived from high-resolution atmospheric dynamics simulations of an exoplanet, WASP-121 b. This planet serves to illustrate several important features.

On the Measurement of Ocean Acidity With Ambient Sound

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract The volume‐integrated pH of seawater can be determined from the frequency and depth dependence of wind‐generated ambient noise in the ocean. Over the 1–10 kHz frequency band, three main processes contribute to the acoustic attenuation in seawater: the chemical relaxation of boric acid and magnesium carbonate (<3 kHz, related to pH) and of ...

Ancient Mars Climate With a Polar Ocean and Ice Sheet Dynamics

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract In this article, we study the conditions required to maintain a stable ocean on Mars 3 Ga using a new suite of simulations. These simulations couple a 3D Global Climate Model with ocean dynamics and ice sheet flow. The model includes the main processes of the atmosphere/hydrosphere/cryosphere to investigate Mars' ancient climate.

Electrical Resistivity of Liquid Fe‐16S‐2Si up to 13 GPa With Implications for the Adiabatic Heat Flux Through the Core of Exoplanet TRAPPIST‐1h

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Thermal convective processes in the liquid cores of terrestrial planetary bodies with the capacity to generate magnetic dynamos may be better characterized by thermal conductivity estimates of core conditions. The composition of the core of asteroid 4 Vesta as determined by geochemical studies of HED meteorites is used as an analog for the ...

Re‐Analysis of Pioneer Venus Data: Water, Iron Sulfate, and Sulfuric Acid are Major Components in Venus' Aerosols

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract We present a new and transformative composition for Venus' cloud aerosols using previously uncharacterized data acquired by the Pioneer Venus Large Probe, which descended through Venus' atmosphere in 1978. This aerosol composition was extracted by re‐analyzing data acquired by the Large Probe Neutral Mass Spectrometer (LNMS) and re‐evaluating ...

A Disintegrating Rocky World Shrouded in Dust and Gas: Mid-infrared Observations of K2-22 b Using JWST

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The disintegrating ultrashort period rocky exoplanet K2-22 b periodically emits dusty clouds in a dynamically chaotic process resulting in a variable transit depth from 0% to 1.3%.

The “Analogs for VENus' GEologically Recent Surfaces” (AVENGERS) Initiative: Using Terrestrial Analogs to Study Recent Volcano‐Tectonic Activity on Venus and Inform the Characterization of Terrestrial Exoplanets

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Several missions to Venus have recently been selected for launch, opening a new era for the exploration of the planet. A key question these missions seek to address is whether Venus is geologically active today. Detecting active volcanism on Venus would contribute to a better understanding of volcanic and atmospheric processes on Earth.
