The pith

A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.

This review argues that atmospheric composition is the best available window into the interiors of rocky exoplanets, going beyond mass and radius alone. The catch is that the atmosphere is never a static fingerprint: it is continuously reshaped by how the planet formed, how gases escape, how the surface and mantle exchange volatiles, how light drives chemistry, and whether life is present. The authors walk through primordial capture, impact and magma-ocean outgassing, volcanic degassing, thermal and non-thermal escape, climate feedbacks such as the carbonate-silicate cycle and runaway greenhouse, nitrogen and sulfur cycles, biosignatures, and photochemistry. The practical claim is that future spectra from space and ground facilities will be usable as interior probes only if these coupled processes are modelled together rather than treated in isolation.

Core claim

The atmospheric composition of rocky exoplanets can constrain interior properties beyond mass and radius, but only when the complex, time-evolving interplay of formation, escape, long-term atmosphere-surface-interior exchange, photochemistry, and biology is understood and jointly modelled.

What carries the argument

Coupled atmosphere-interior evolution: the set of processes (primordial capture and secondary outgassing, thermal and non-thermal escape, volatile cycling including the carbonate-silicate cycle, photochemistry, and biological activity) that jointly determine atmospheric composition over time.

Load-bearing premise

The solar-system and laboratory rules for how gases dissolve, how redox state is set, and how atmospheres escape still work when applied to the much wider range of exoplanet masses, stars, and bulk compositions discussed in the review.

What would settle it

A statistical sample of temperate rocky planets near the inner and outer edges of the habitable zone whose measured CO2 levels do not follow the high-CO2 outer-edge / low-CO2 inner-edge pattern predicted by an active carbonate-silicate cycle, or multi-planet systems straddling the radius gap whose mass-radius pairs systematically contradict atmospheric-escape models.

Referee Report

2 major / 5 minor

Summary. This review synthesizes the formation, loss, and long-term evolution of rocky exoplanet atmospheres, arguing that atmospheric composition can constrain interior properties beyond mass and radius once formation, escape, surface–interior exchange, photochemistry, and biology are jointly accounted for. It covers primordial H/He capture and pollution, impact/magma-ocean/volcanic secondary outgassing and redox control, thermal (boil-off, core-powered, photoevaporation) and non-thermal escape, solar-system and exoplanet observational diagnostics (including the radius valley), climate feedbacks (carbonate–silicate, water vapor/runaway greenhouse, ice–albedo, clouds), underrepresented N and S cycles, biosignatures and false positives, and upper-atmosphere photochemistry. The manuscript closes by stressing the need for co-evolution models and better laboratory constraints for future characterization missions.

Significance. If the synthesis holds, it supplies a timely, multi-process roadmap for interpreting JWST, PLATO, and future direct-imaging spectra of rocky worlds and for designing interior–atmosphere retrieval frameworks. Strengths include an explicit, well-referenced treatment of magma-ocean redox and outgassing (including the rule-of-thumb pressure estimates in Fig. 4), a clear distinction between thermal and non-thermal escape with solar-system rate benchmarks, and a careful discussion of O2/O3 and CH4 false positives that incorporates thermospheric XUV effects. The review is useful as a community reference even where it does not introduce new derivations.

major comments (2)
  1. The central claim (Abstract and §1) that atmospheric composition constrains interior state beyond mass/radius rests on invertibility of the forward models in §§2–5. Those models rely on solar-system/lab parameterizations (energy-limited η in Eq. 3 and its SED/gravity dependence; magma-ocean fO2 relative to IW; volatile solubilities; carbonate–silicate rates) that §2.1.3 itself flags as extrapolated and poorly validated outside Earth-like T–P–redox–XUV ranges. For the super-Earth/M-dwarf/high-XUV targets that dominate near-term observations, the review should state more explicitly where the atmosphere-to-interior mapping becomes degenerate or biased, and which observables (e.g., multi-species isotopic ratios, radius-valley architecture of multi-planet systems) remain robust under those failures.
  2. §2.2.1 (core-powered mass loss / boil-off): the text correctly notes that analytical models based on Ginzburg et al. (2018) overestimate loss relative to Tang et al. (2024) and that opacity ratios matter (Misener et al. 2025), yet the subsequent discussion of the radius valley (§2.3.2) still treats core-powered and photoevaporation scenarios as comparably predictive. A short quantitative comparison of predicted valley location/slope under the revised numerical rates would strengthen the claim that escape sculpts the observed population.
minor comments (5)
  1. Fig. 3 caption and surrounding text: clarify whether the Ginzburg et al. (2016) and Mordasini (2020) curves assume the same disk lifetime and grain opacity; the plotted offset at 1 AU is otherwise hard to interpret.
  2. Eq. (3): define FXUV explicitly in the equation (it appears only in the prose) and note the conventional range of η for secondary atmospheres, not only H-rich cases.
  3. §3.5.1–3.5.2 (N and S cycles): a short table summarizing solar-system reservoir sizes and dominant fluxes would help readers compare the three terrestrial planets and Io.
  4. Fig. 10: the LUVOIR/HWO transmission spectra are illustrative; state the assumed atmospheric profiles and haze treatment so the figure can be reproduced or updated.
  5. Scattered typographical issues (e.g., missing spaces after periods in the Abstract, inconsistent use of ‘Gyr’ vs ‘Gyr ago’) should be cleaned in copy-editing.

Circularity Check

0 steps flagged

No significant circularity: pure literature review with no self-referential derivations, fitted-as-prediction steps, or load-bearing self-citation chains.

full rationale

This is a review paper synthesizing existing literature on rocky exoplanet atmosphere formation, escape, surface-interior exchange, photochemistry, and biology. It advances no new first-principles derivation, uniqueness theorem, or quantitative prediction whose output reduces by construction to its inputs. Scaling relations (e.g., Eqs. 1–2 for primordial atmosphere mass fractions from Ginzburg et al. 2016 and Mordasini 2020; energy-limited escape Eq. 3) and rule-of-thumb estimates (Fig. 4) are explicitly attributed to prior independent works or presented as illustrative. Self-citations by co-authors appear only as ordinary supporting references within a broad multi-author survey and are not used to force a central claim. No ansatz is smuggled, no known empirical pattern is merely renamed, and no parameter fitted to data is re-labeled a prediction. The paper is therefore self-contained as a synthesis against external benchmarks; circularity score is zero.

Axiom & Free-Parameter Ledger

0 free parameters · 4 axioms · 0 invented entities

A review inherits the domain assumptions of the cited literature rather than introducing free parameters or new entities of its own. The load-bearing premises are therefore the standard physical and geochemical frameworks used throughout the field.

axioms (4)
  • domain assumption Primordial atmospheres are grain-free and can be described by Bondi-radius hydrostatic structure with gas opacity dominant (Section 2.1.1).
    Standard planet-formation assumption drawn from Mordasini, Ginzburg et al.; not re-derived here.
  • domain assumption Energy-limited escape rate formula with heating efficiency η ~1–20 % adequately approximates XUV-driven mass loss for order-of-magnitude estimates (Eq. 3).
    Widely used approximation; paper notes its known over-/under-estimates but still employs it as baseline.
  • domain assumption Magma-ocean and volcanic outgassing speciation is controlled by oxygen fugacity relative to the iron-wüstite buffer and by solubility laws extrapolated to high T/P (Sections 2.1.2, 3).
    Core geochemical framework of Gaillard, Elkins-Tanton, etc.; experimental validation remains incomplete at extreme conditions.
  • domain assumption Carbonate-silicate weathering provides a negative climate feedback that can stabilize liquid water on both plate-tectonic and stagnant-lid planets (Section 3.1).
    Earth-based cycle extrapolated to exoplanets; paper acknowledges dependence on continuous volcanism and liquid water.

The atmospheric composition of rocky exoplanets offers an important tool for constraining the properties of the interior of this type of planet, beyond what is possible from measurements of their mass and radius alone. However, the interpretation of these observations requires an understanding of the complex interplay of a larger number of coupled planetary and atmospheric processes. This review provides an overview of the current state of knowledge regarding rocky exoplanet atmospheres, beginning with their formation and escape mechanisms. We specifically highlight the importance of long-term interaction between the atmosphere, the surface, and the interior on rocky planets. Furthermore, this review addresses the influence of biological activity and photochemical reactions on the atmospheric compositions. Consequently, establishing how these different processes contribute to shaping the atmospheres of rocky exoplanets during their evolution is fundamental for the characterization of these planets with future space missions and ground-based surveys.
