Venus-like Exoplanet Simulations: Temperature, Wind and Energy Balance Datasets Using the VTGCM

Creator:

Bougher, S. W. and Parkinson, C. D.

Description:

Understanding the state and composition of an exoplanetary atmosphere depends upon several parameters such as heating, cooling, mixing and reactions between constituent chemical species. Only a few types of atmospheric species can be detected remotely spectroscopically and only if their abundance is large enough to be detectable. In this initial study, we model the atmosphere of a Venus-like planet orbiting the M-type star GJ 436 to determine the global neutral temperature structure, winds, and energy balance as the radial distance of the planet from the star decreases.
