A Shallow-water Model Exploration of Atmospheric Circulation on Sub-Neptunes: Effects of Radiative Forcing and Rotation Period

Sub-Neptune-type exoplanets are abundant in our Galaxy yet have no solar system analogs. They exist in a broad range of stellar forcing and rotational regimes that are distinctly different from solar system planets and more commonly studied hot Jupiters. Here we present simulations that explore glob...
