Nightside condensation of iron in an ultra-hot giant exoplanet [PDF]

Nature, 2020
Ultrahot giant exoplanets receive thousands of times Earth’s insolation 1 , 2 . Their high-temperature atmospheres (greater than 2,000 kelvin) are ideal laboratories for studying extreme planetary climates and chemistry 3 – 5 .

Paleogene monsoons across India and South China: Drivers of biotic change [PDF]

, 2017
Monsoonal climates at low latitudes (2. Fossil leaf form reveals that under such 'hothouse' conditions megathermal early Eocene to earliest Miocene forests were exposed to strong monsoonal climates typical of those experienced today arising from annual ...

The Habitable Zone and Extreme Planetary Orbits [PDF]

, 2012
The Habitable Zone for a given star describes the range of circumstellar distances from the star within which a planet could have liquid water on its surface, which depends upon the stellar properties.

Superhabitability of High-obliquity and High-eccentricity Planets

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Planetary obliquity and eccentricity influence climate by shaping the spatial and temporal patterns of stellar energy incident at a planet’s surface, affecting both the annual mean climate and magnitude of seasonal variability.

Climate Variability and Change of Mediterranean-Type Climates

Journal of Climate, 2019
Mediterranean-type climates are defined by temperate, wet winters, and hot or warm dry summers and exist at the western edges of five continents in locations determined by the geography of winter storm tracks and summer subtropical anticyclones.

Moist Convection and the Thermal Stratification of the Extratropical Troposphere [PDF]

, 2008
Simulations with an aquaplanet general circulation model show that sensible and latent heat transport by large-scale eddies influences the extratropical thermal stratification over a wide range of climates, even in relatively warm climates with small ...

Arctic climate and atmospheric planetary waves [PDF]

Geophysical Research Letters, 2001
Analysis of a fifty‐year record (1946–1995) of monthly‐averaged sea level pressure data provides a link between the phases of planetary‐scale sea level pressure waves and Arctic Ocean and ice variability. Results of this analysis show: (1) a breakdown of the dominant wave 1 pattern in the late 1960's, (2) shifts in the mean phase of waves 1 and 2 since

Planetary climate under extremely high vertical diffusivity [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2022
Aims. Planets with large moon(s) or those in the habitable zone of low-mass stars may experience much stronger tidal force and tide-induced ocean mixing than that on Earth. Thus, the vertical diffusivity (or, more precisely, diapycnal diffusivity) on such planets, which represents the strength of vertical mixing in the ocean, would be greater than that
