Metallicity, planetary formation and migration [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2003
Recent observations show a clear correlation between the probability of hosting a planet and the metallicity of the parent star. Since radial velocity surveys are biased, however, towards detecting planets with short orbital periods, the probability-metallicity correlation could merely reflect a dependence of migration rates on metallicity.

RESONANT REMOVAL OF EXOMOONS DURING PLANETARY MIGRATION [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2016
ABSTRACT Jupiter and Saturn play host to an impressive array of satellites, making it reasonable to suspect that similar systems of moons might exist around giant extrasolar planets. Furthermore, a significant population of such planets is known to reside at distances of several Astronomical Units (AU), leading to speculation that some ...

Migrating microbes and planetary protection

open access: yesTrends in Microbiology, 2009
Since the dawn of the space age, humans have wrestled with concerns about planetary cross-contamination. Spacecraft launched from Earth can transport hitchhiker microbes to new worlds on both robotic and crewed vehicles. As plans proceed for future life detection and human exploration missions, planetary protection considerations are again uppermost on

Preventing extinction in an age of species migration and planetary change [PDF]

open access: yesConservation Biology, 2023
Abstract International and national conservation policies almost exclusively focus on conserving species in their historic native ranges, thus excluding species that have dispersed on their own accord or have been introduced by people. Given that many of these ‘migrant’ species are threatened in their native ranges, conservation goals ...

Long extra-tropical planetary wave propagation in the presence of slowly varying mean flow and bottom topography. II: ray propagation and comparison with observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Ray theory is used to predict phase and group velocities for long planetary waves under realistic, albeit slowly varying, oceanic conditions. The results are compared with local theory using fields smoothed to the same amount (9° latitude/longitude) as ...
