| Atmospheric constraints for the CO 2 partial pressure on terrestrial planets near the outer edge of the habitable zone http://arxiv.org/abs/1211.4367Various effects of stellar insolation, etc. One potentially interesting consequence: - Quote :
- As has been shown above (Fig. 3), for planets orbiting within the HZ of K-G-F stars there is a region of liquid surface CO2 combined with surface temperatures above 273 K, i.e. liquid surface H2O. This means that it is possible to form H2O-CO2 oceans.
