Aspects of Multi-Dimensional Modelling of Substellar Atmospheres
arXiv:1012.3013
Abstract
Theoretical arguments and observations suggest that the atmospheres of Brown Dwarfs and planets are very dynamic on chemical and on physical time scales. The modelling of such substellar atmospheres has, hence, been much more demanding than initially anticipated. This Splinter (http://star-www.st-and.ac.uk/~ch80/CS16/MultiDSplinter_CS16.html) has combined new developments in atmosphere modelling, with novel observational techniques, and new challenges arising from planetary and space weather observations.
