New Model Maps Extreme Climate States of Terrestrial Planets
Original: Gen-EBM: An Energy Balance Model For Terrestrial Planets. Climate Multistability From Snowball To Post-runaway Greenhouse Climates
Researchers have introduced Gen-EBM, an energy balance model for terrestrial planets that simulates a wide range of climate states, from fully frozen snowball conditions to post-runaway greenhouse regimes. The work highlights climate multistability, showing how the same planet can settle into dramatically different stable climates depending on its history and starting conditions, with implications for planetary habitability studies.
Why now: The model's ability to span snowball to runaway greenhouse climates is relevant to current debates on planetary habitability and Earth's climate tipping points.
