The faint young Sun problem revisited with a 3-D climate–carbon model – Part 1
During the Archaean, the Sun's luminosity was 18 to 25% lower than the present day. One-dimensional radiative convective models (RCM) generally infer that high concentrations of greenhouse gases (CO<sub>2</sub>, CH<sub>4</sub>) are required to prevent the early Earth...
