The effects of stellar winds on the magnetospheres and potential habitability of exoplanets [PDF]
, 2014 Context: The principle definition of habitability for exoplanets is whether they can sustain liquid water on their surfaces, i.e. that they orbit within the habitable zone.

Tides, planetary companions, and habitability: habitability in the habitable zone of low-mass stars [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2014 Earth-scale planets in the classical habitable zone (HZ) are more likely to be habitable if they possess active geophysics. Without a constant internal energy source, planets cool as they age, eventually terminating tectonic activity and rendering the planet sterile to life.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study reveals a hidden chemical weapon among calcareous‐shelled sessile organisms in the intertidal zone: the barnacle Balanus albicostatus releases a synergistic blend of palmitic acid and 1‐palmitoyl‐sn‐glycero‐3‐phosphocholine as the allelochemical with the inhibitory activity against attachment of the mussel Vignadula atrata, which may mediate

A More Comprehensive Habitable Zone for Finding Life on Other Planets
Geosciences, 2018 The habitable zone (HZ) is the circular region around a star(s) where standing bodies of water could exist on the surface of a rocky planet. Space missions employ the HZ to select promising targets for follow-up habitability assessment.

A POPULATION-BASED HABITABLE ZONE PERSPECTIVE [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2015 What can we tell about exoplanet habitability if currently only the stellar properties, planet radius, and the incoming stellar flux are known? A planet is in the Habitable Zone (HZ) if it harbors liquid water on its surface. The HZ is traditionally conceived as a sharp region around stars because it is calculated for one planet with specific ...

Agribusiness, EarlyView.Abstract This study explores the rent price ratio in agricultural land markets, crucial for evaluating market efficiency, policy needs, and farmer decision‐making. Traditionally, the analyses faced challenges due to the absence of concurrent sale and rent data for the same land, potentially leading to biased results.

Continuous Habitable Zone Metric for Prioritizing Habitable Worlds Observatory Targets
The Astrophysical JournalFuture direct imaging space telescopes, such as NASA’s Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO), will be the first capable of both detecting and characterizing terrestrial exoplanets in the habitable zones (HZs) of nearby Sun-like stars.

The Role of Certifications in Improving Household Food Security Among Peruvian Farmers
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Achieving global food security requires sustainable transformations in agri‐food systems. Voluntary Sustainability Standards (VSS) such as Organic and Fairtrade aim to internalize certain social and environmental costs while promoting more equitable value distribution, improved market access, and sustainable production practices.

The habitability of super-Earths in Gliese 581
, 2007 Aims: The planetary system around the M star Gliese 581 consists of a hot Neptune (Gl 581b) and two super-Earths (Gl 581c and Gl 581d). The habitability of this system with respect to the super-Earths is investigated following a concept that studies the ...
