2 INTRODUCTION Exoplanet circulation modelling Allows us to probe dynamical regimes beyond our own solar system, which expands our overall knowledge of atmospheric dynamics Provides insights to three-dimensional structure Temperature, heating/cooling rates, composition, clouds, chemistry Complements -D models in interpreting observations of exoplanet atmospheres: transmission/emission spectra, phase curves, eclipse maps Now that we have a (relatively) large observational dataset for a range of planets over a large wavelength range, we can identify trends in atmospheric properties and conduct detailed comparative studies
3 SAMPLE STUDIES WASP-43b, an ultra-short period hot Jupiter Dataset: Spectrophotometric phase curves with HST/WFC3 Objectives: Place constraints on atmospheric metallicity Large HST program, hot Jupiters observed in transmission Dataset: Transmission spectra of HJs with STIS and WFC3 Objectives: Understand role of clouds on target sample 55 Cnc e, an ultra-short period super Earth Dataset: Spitzer transit/eclipse measurements from -3 Objectives: Constrain composition and atmospheric variability

14 CONCLUSIONS AND FUTURE WORK Three-dimensional circulation models can be used to lend insights on a variety of observational datasets, and help answer fundamental questions about their atmospheric properties GCM-derived models can provide constraints, but they re not perfect For example, model phase curves generally over-predict nightside flux Enhancement of C/O ratio, disequilibrium chemistry, and/or clouds can be invoked to explain discrepancy, but detailed models are needed to explore these effects Need GCMs that encapsulate more complex physics However, with great complexity comes great responsibility Idealized models help identify fundamental dynamical mechanisms
