Illustration describing the processes treated by several models participating in CHILI. The leftmost six models are evolutionary, where dynamics and composition change with time. The rightmost four models are static, where the planets are implicitly assumed to be at steady state. MORE is shown between evolutionary and static models, as it not fully time dependent (see main text). The six radial domains of the models include the core, solid mantle, liquid mantle, surface boundary layer, atmosphere, and exosphere or outer space. Interactions coupling these layers are denoted by arrows.
