A Novel Metric for Assessing Climatological Surface Habitability
The Planetary Science JournalPlanetary surface habitability has so far been considered, in the main, on a global scale. The increasing number of 3D modelling studies of (exo)planetary climate has highlighted the need for a more nuanced understanding of surface habitability.

Terminator Habitability: The Case for Limited Water Availability on M-dwarf Planets
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Rocky planets orbiting M-dwarf stars are among the most promising and abundant astronomical targets for detecting habitable climates. Planets in the M-dwarf habitable zone are likely synchronously rotating, such that we expect significant day–night ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Transformative change is required to address persistent and systemic drivers of biodiversity loss. There is an urgent need for innovative solutions that tackle root causes in place‐specific contexts. Evidence indicates that small, innovative, purpose‐driven businesses can serve as vehicles for developing place‐based solutions.

Characterizing Exoplanet Habitability [PDF]
, 2018 A habitable exoplanet is a world that can maintain stable liquid water on its surface. Techniques and approaches to characterizing such worlds are essential, as performing a census of Earth-like planets that may or may not have life will inform our ...

Degassing of CO2 triggers large-scale loss of helium from magma oceans
Communications Earth & EnvironmentThe moon-forming impact caused widespread melting and vaporization of the proto-Earth, leading to the formation of a protolunar disk1,2. Volatile elements trapped in the inner parts of the disk condensed together with heavier elements into a global magma

User-friendly carbon-cycle modelling and aspects of Phanerozoic climate change
Applied Computing and GeosciencesCarbon-cycle modelling is essential for testing the main carbon sources and sinks as climate forcings, and we introduce and describe GEOCARB_NET, a graphical user interface for the geologic carbon and sulfur cycle model GEOCARBSULFvolc.

An Ionic Limit to Life in the Deep Subsurface
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 The physical and chemical factors that can limit or prevent microbial growth in the deep subsurface are not well defined. Brines from an evaporite sequence were sampled in the Boulby Mine, United Kingdom between 800 and 1300 m depth.
