Hot Jupiters: Origins, Structure, Atmospheres

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 126, Issue 3, March 2021., 2021
Abstract We provide a brief review of many aspects of the planetary physics of hot Jupiters. Our aim is to cover most of the major areas of current study while providing the reader with additional references for more detailed follow‐up. We first discuss giant planet formation and subsequent orbital evolution via disk‐driven torques or dynamical ...

The Fundamental Connections between the Solar System and Exoplanetary Science

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 126, Issue 2, February 2021., 2021
Abstract Over the past several decades, thousands of planets have been discovered outside our Solar System. These planets exhibit enormous diversity, and their large numbers provide a statistical opportunity to place our Solar System within the broader context of planetary structure, atmospheres, architectures, formation, and evolution.

The Resilience of Habitable Climates Around Circumbinary Stars

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 125, Issue 9, September 2020., 2020
Abstract Here we use a 3‐D climate system model to study the habitability of Earth‐like planets orbiting in circumbinary systems. In the most extreme cases, Earth‐like planets in circumbinary systems could experience variations in the incident stellar flux of up to ~50% on ~100‐day timescales.

Kuwae, Epi and Tongoa Islands: Transformations of a volcanic landscape in central Vanuatu

open access: yesArchaeology in Oceania, Volume 60, Issue 1, Page 42-62, April 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a detailed overview of archaeological research undertaken on Epi and Tongoa, in central Vanuatu. These islands were previously connected to one another and respectively formed the western and eastern portions of Kuwae, one of the largest islands in the Vanuatu archipelago, until the catastrophic Tombuk volcanic eruption ...

Assessing and enhancing the circularity and sustainability of emergency hospital shelters

open access: yesDisasters, Volume 49, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract Leading humanitarian organisations strive to enhance the sustainability of their aid to avoid negative impacts on the environment, economy, and society, particularly in low‐resource areas. This study explores how the circularity and sustainability of emergency hospital shelters can be assessed using literature, expert interviews, co‐creation ...

Magma Ocean Evolution at Arbitrary Redox State

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 129, Issue 12, December 2024.
Abstract Interactions between magma oceans and overlying atmospheres on young rocky planets leads to an evolving feedback of outgassing, greenhouse forcing, and mantle melt fraction. Previous studies have predominantly focused on the solidification of oxidized Earth‐similar planets, but the diversity in mean density and irradiation observed in the low ...

Geodynamics of Super‐Earth GJ 486b

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 129, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract Many super‐Earths are on very short orbits around their host star and, therefore, more likely to be tidally locked. Because this locking can lead to a strong contrast between the dayside and nightside surface temperatures, these super‐Earths could exhibit mantle convection patterns and tectonics that could differ significantly from those ...

On‐the‐Fly Calculation of Absorbed and Equivalent Atmospheric Radiation Dose in A Water Phantom with the Atmospheric Radiation Interaction Simulator (AtRIS)

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 124, Issue 12, Page 9774-9790, December 2019., 2019
Abstract Computation of the ionization and radiation dose in arbitrary (exo‐) planetary atmospheres due to energetic particles is recently becoming more important due to several reasons that are either correlated with the detection of trace gases for life on exoplanets or with computing dose rates at arbitrary altitudes in the Earth atmosphere.
