1. 1. Fractional Habitability comparison of slow rotating Earth-like bodies

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

   Author : Gustaf Gothefors-Holm; [2023]
   Keywords : habitability; General circulation model; climate modelling;

   Abstract : ROCKE-3D is a contemporary Global Circulation Model allowing research into the complex processes behind the climate of planets. Using ROCKE-3D one can construct a model coupling atmosphere, land, and ocean revealing how the climate of a planet evolves over time. READ MORE

3. 2. Simulations of the Tenuous Upper Atmospheres of Exoplanets

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Astrofysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Lucian Spitzner; [2023]
   Keywords : astronomy; astrophyics; exoplanets; transmission spectroscopy; magnetic fields; atmospheres; ions; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Over the last decade, the interest in research on extraterrestrial planets has expanded dramatically. With the number of confirmed exoplanets having increased tenfold over the last ten years, we now know that many different types of exoplanets exist. READ MORE

4. 3. Intercomparison of a Dynamic Ocean for Earth-like Aqua-planets

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

   Author : Fredrik Plane; [2022]
   Keywords : Astrobiology; Planets; Aqua-planets; Atmosphere and Ocean physics; Exoplanet; Habitability; General Circulation Model; GCM; Climate Modelling; Dynamic Ocean;

   Abstract : I present herein an ensemble of ROCKE-3D aqua-planet simulations which I compare with the simulations presented in the work of Yang et al. (2019) and other similar works. The focus was on contrasting differences in the greenhouse effect between the models. READ MORE

5. 4. Terrestrial Reorientation of Managing - Blockchain Projects - for Sustainability

   University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för Urbana Studier (US)

   Author : Joe Storm; [2022]
   Keywords : Climate change; management; post qualitative inquiry; Bruno Latour; sustainability; organization; blockchain; economy; Gaia; Terrestrial; New Climatic Regime;

   Abstract : This thesis is a post qualitative inquiry that explores a different research approach concerning climate change and what Bruno Latour calls the Terrestrial. We are now living in a New Climatic Regime or locked-down age, according to Latour, where life continues – yet is ever more suspended and disorienting. READ MORE

6. 5. Climate Simulations of an Exoplanet with a Slab Ocean: A 3D Model Intercomparison of various GCMs

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

   Author : Moa Biserud; [2022]
   Keywords : Climate simulations; GCM; ROCKE-3D; Exoplanet; Slab Ocean; Qflux=0;

   Abstract : Three-dimensional (3D) planetary general circulation models (GCMs) have been derived from global climate models used to project 21st century changes in Earth's climate. GCMs are used to address questions regarding the climate-and habitability aspects of terrestrial planets within the solar system and assess the habitability of planets outside of the solar system, so called exoplanets.
