Transient climate–carbon simulations of planetary geoengineering [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007
Geoengineering (the intentional modification of Earth's climate) has been proposed as a means of reducing CO 2 -induced climate warming while greenhouse gas emissions continue. Most proposals involve managing incoming solar radiation such that future greenhouse gas forcing is counteracted by reduced solar forcing ...

Effects of Extreme Obliquity Variations on the Habitability of Exoplanets [PDF]

, 2014
We explore the impact of obliquity variations on planetary habitability in hypothetical systems with high mutual inclination. We show that large amplitude, high frequency obliquity oscillations on Earth-like exoplanets can suppress the ice-albedo ...

Impact of Warmer Sea Surface Temperature on the Global Pattern of Intense Convection: Insights From a Global Storm Resolving Model

Geophysical Research Letters, 2022
Intense convection (updrafts exceeding 10 m s−1) plays an essential role in severe weather and Earth's energy balance. Despite its importance, how the global pattern of intense convection changes in response to warmed climates remains unclear, as ...

The Influence of Hydrogen Sulfide on the Optical Properties of Planetary Organic Hazes: Implications for Exoplanet Climate Modeling

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Planetary organic hazes can play a significant role in influencing a planet’s radiative balance and climate, with their impact determined by the optical properties of the haze.

Nonequilibrium thermodynamics of circulation regimes in optically-thin, dry atmospheres [PDF]

, 2013
An extensive analysis of an optically-thin, dry atmosphere at different values of the thermal Rossby number Ro and of the Taylor number Ff is per- formed with a general circulation model by varying the rotation rate {\Omega} and the surface drag {\tau ...

Stability of a planetary climate system with the biosphere species competing for resources [PDF]

Physical Review E, 2021
With the growing number of discovered exoplanets, the Gaia concept finds its second wind. The Gaia concept defines that the biosphere of an inhabited planet regulates a planetary climate through feedback loops such that the planet remains habitable. Crunching 'Gaia' puzzle has been a focus of intense empirical research.

The role of chaotic resonances in the solar system [PDF]

, 2001
Our understanding of the Solar System has been revolutionized over the past decade by the finding that the orbits of the planets are inherently chaotic. In extreme cases, chaotic motions can change the relative positions of the planets around stars, and ...

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.

The Key Factors Controlling the Seasonality of Planetary Climate

AGU Advances, 2022
AbstractSeveral different factors influence the seasonal cycle of a planet. This study uses a general circulation model and an energy balance model (EBM) to assess the parameters that govern the seasonal cycle. We define two metrics to describe the seasonal cycle, ϕs, the latitudinal shift of the maximum temperature, and ΔT, the maximum seasonal ...
