Nightside Ionospheric Structure and Composition on Mars Driven by Energetic Electron Precipitation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Ionospheric chemistry plays an unexpectedly important role in the evolution of planetary habitability. This study is dedicated to a detailed modeling of the nightside Martian ionospheric structure and composition, a topic that has been poorly explored ...

Planetary atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomical School’s Report, 2009
The theoretical and observational aspects of research of planetary atmospheres and their main satellites are presented. Physics of atmosphere, its structure, making climate factors, stability of atmospheres to dissipation of basic gases, applicability of theory of similarity to the study of atmosphere and its general circulation are considered.

Polar vortices in planetary atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, 2021
Abstract Among the great diversity of atmospheric circulation patterns observed throughout the solar system, polar vortices stand out as a nearly ubiquitous planetary‐scale phenomenon. In recent years, there have been significant advances in the observation of planetary polar vortices, culminating in the fascinating discovery of ...

Convection and Clouds under Different Planetary Gravities Simulated by a Small-domain Cloud-resolving Model

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In this study, we employ a cloud-resolving model to investigate how gravity influences convection and clouds in a small-domain (96 × 96 km) radiative–convective equilibrium.

Gravity Waves in Planetary Atmospheres: Their Effects and Parameterization in Global Circulation Models

open access: yes, 2019
The dynamical and thermodynamical importance of gravity waves was initially recognized in the atmosphere of Earth. Extensive studies over recent decades demonstrated that gravity waves exist in atmospheres of other planets, similarly play a significant ...

A database of aerosols and gases coefficients for VIS-NIR radiative transfer in the Solar System planetary atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Radiative transfer (RT) modelling of planetary atmospheres allows to obtain extremely valuable information about these environments. The computation of optical properties of the aerosols and gases, that is heavily time consuming, is always required as ...
