Climates of Warm Earth-like Planets I: 3-D Model Simulations

, 2018
We present a large ensemble of simulations of an Earth-like world with increasing insolation and rotation rate. Unlike previous work utilizing idealized aquaplanet configurations we focus our simulations on modern Earth-like topography.

Bioenergy Cropping Reduces the Spatiotemporal Scaling of Soil Bacterial Biodiversity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Consistent with patterns observed in plant and animal communities, soil bacterial communities exhibit significant species–time–area and phylogenetic–time–area relationships independent of nested structure. Bioenergy cropping significantly reduces the spatiotemporal scaling rates, particularly in sandy loam soils.

Substellar Landmass Fraction and Atmospheric Circulation Regimes of Ultrashort-period Rocky Planets around White Dwarfs

The Astrophysical Journal
White-dwarf (WD) systems are attractive candidates for planet detection and follow-up transmission spectroscopy campaigns. However, the climate and habitability of terrestrial planets around WDs still remain largely elusive, and a central question lies ...

The UVic earth system climate model: Model description, climatology, and applications to past, present and future climates

Data, Models and Analysis, 2001
A new earth system climate model of intermediate complexity has been developed and its climatology compared to observations. The UVic Earth System Climate Model consists of a three‐dimensional ocean general circulation model coupled to a thermodynamic ...

Climate Action Impacts on Steelmaking Emissions of Persistent Organic Pollutants Highlight a Gap Between the Paris Agreement and the Stockholm Convention

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Emissions of unintentionally produced persistent organic pollutants (UPOPs) and global warming are two major environmental challenges. But their governance has largely evolved in parallel, leaving the toxicity implications of climate‐driven industrial transitions poorly understood.

Impacts of Atmospheric Carbon Species and Stellar Type on Climates of Terrestrial Planets

The Planetary Science Journal
The 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 ...

Atmospheric Circulation of Terrestrial Exoplanets [PDF]

, 2013
The investigation of planets around other stars began with the study of gas giants, but is now extending to the discovery and characterization of super-Earths and terrestrial planets.

Global Nitrogen Deposition Promotes Carbon Sink Formation in Terrestrial Ecosystems

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nitrogen deposition alleviates ecosystem N limitation and enhances carbon sinks. Using 829 observations, we show 36% of deposited N is retained globally (39.15 Tg N yr−1), with distinct NHx and NOy contributions. This retention drives a terrestrial C sink of 0.88 Pg C yr−1 (25.48%), highlighting the importance of pool‐specific C:N stoichiometry ...

The New Titan Planetary Climate Model. I. Seasonal Variations of the Thermal Structure and Circulation in the Stratosphere

The Planetary Science Journal
Observations of Titan through Cassini’s mission allowed Saturn’s moon’s stratospheric thermal structure and composition to be mapped over half a Titan year.
