File:Initial climate feedbacks (left-hand side) and temperature histories (right-hand side) of single runs of several randomly generated planets.webp

English: "Each row of the figure is a different planet. On the left-hand plots (panels a, c, e and g): black circles are nodes and the thick black line is f(T) (see Methods for explanation); light grey shading indicates a region of runaway warming or runaway cooling; red circles show initial positions of attractors; red stippled lines demarcate associated basins of attraction. On the right-hand plots (panels b, d, f and h): blue line shows the evolution of planetary temperature; black shading shows limits to habitability; red circles show positions of attractors; green squares are the randomly determined initial temperatures for each run; red triangles indicate the largest perturbations, with triangle size proportional to perturbation magnitude. a and b are for example planet 1, c & d planet 2, e & f planet 3 and g & h planet 4. Note the different scale on the time axis of each right-hand panel."
