I will discuss the range of magma ocean planets that may be in our current exoplanet sample and some of the implications for atmospheric composition and long - term evolution of these planets.

[Response: Changes in the atmospheric composition are negligible for their effect on the gas law, but not in terms of radiative transfer, so your conclusion is invalid.]

Also, geoengineering is an awfully vague term — haven't we been doing geoengineering for the past 150 years by altering the atmospheric composition?

For the long - term, it is important to encourage development now of technologies that will lead to reduced emissions or will capture and sequester CO2 at power plants, in order to be able to stabilize atmospheric composition in the second half of the century.

the reason the period of the last 1000 years isn't much of a priority in terms of paleo simulations is that you need some specified change to external forcing (solar, atmospheric composition) or bottom boundary conditions (like continents moving around) to get a simulation that is different from present.
