Mass transport in a moist planetary climate model [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2022 Planetary climate models (PCMs) are developed to explore planetary climates other than that of the Earth. Therefore, the methods implemented need to be suitable for a large diversity of conditions. Every planet with a significant atmosphere has condensible cycles (e.g. the hydrological cycle), which can play an essential role in the planet’s appearance

The Climates of Earth’s Next Supercontinent: Effects of Tectonics, Rotation Rate, and Insolation [PDF]
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021 We explore two possible Earth climate scenarios, 200 and 250 million years into the future, using projections of the evolution of plate tectonics, solar luminosity, and rotation rate.

A Radiative-convective Model for Terrestrial Planets with Self-consistent Patchy Clouds [PDF]
The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 Clouds are ubiquitous: they arise for every solar system planet that possesses an atmosphere and have also been suggested as a leading mechanism for obscuring spectral features in exoplanet observations.

Impacts of Atmospheric Carbon Species and Stellar Type on Climates of Terrestrial Planets [PDF]
The Planetary Science JournalThe 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 ...

Explorations of Atmosphere–Ocean–Ice Climates on an Aquaplanet and Their Meridional Energy Transports [PDF]
, 2007 The degree to which total meridional heat transport is sensitive to the details of its atmospheric and oceanic components is explored. A coupled atmosphere, ocean, and sea ice model of an aquaplanet is employed to simulate very different climates—some ...
