Weak seasonality on temperate exoplanets around low-mass stars
Planets with nonzero obliquity and/or orbital eccentricity experience seasonal variations of stellar irradiation at local latitudes. The extent of the atmospheric response can be crudely estimated by the ratio of the orbital timescale to the atmospheric radiative timescale. Given a set of atmospheri...
