Impacts of Atmospheric Carbon Species and Stellar Type on Climates of Terrestrial Planets

The Planetary Science Journal
The climates of terrestrial planets are largely determined by the composition of their atmospheres and the spectral types of their host stars. Previous studies suggest that a wide range of carbon species abundances (CO _2 , CO, and CH _4 ) can result ...

Particle Sedimentation in a Fluid at Low Reynolds Number: A Generalization of Hindered Settling Described by a Two‐Phase Continuum Model

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Particle‐fluid separation by settling is a ubiquitous process in Earth and Planetary Sciences. The settling velocity of particles is controlled by a balance between buoyancy and drag forces.

Modern anthropogenic drought in Central Brazil unprecedented during last 700 years

Nature Communications
A better understanding of the relative roles of internal climate variability and external contributions, from both natural (solar, volcanic) and anthropogenic greenhouse gas forcing, is important to better project future hydrologic changes.

Testing the Icy Pebble Accretion Hypothesis with Primordial Main-belt Asteroids

The Astrophysical Journal
Large main-belt asteroids (diameter D  ≳ 120 km) exhibit a surface composition gradient as a function of heliocentric distance, ranging from anhydrous bodies to those rich in hydrated and, possibly, ammoniated materials. Their primordial nature holds key
