features.
-
solid or dash solid q
-
larger mean molecular weights? B: shallow features ⇒ higher mean molecular weights
mass-metallicity trend
Question
Can we detect clouds in exoplanets?
Clouds suppress atmospheric chemical signatures
Important
Introduced a degeneracy between cloud-top pressure and mean molecular weight
clouds/winds on giant planets.
Wind cells
Hadley cells
Coriolis Effect
Winds do not follow a straight trajectory
