Clouds and Seasonality on Terrestrial Planets with Varying Rotation Rates

Clouds and Seasonality on Terrestrial Planets with Varying Rotation Rates

Using an idealized climate model incorporating seasonal forcing, we investigate the impact of rotation rate on the abundance of clouds on an Earth-like aquaplanet, and the resulting impacts upon albedo and seasonality. We show that the cloud distribution varies significantly with season, depending s...
