An Extremely Elongated Cloud over Arsia Mons Volcano on Mars: I. Life Cycle
J. Hernández-Bernal, A. Sánchez-Lavega, T. del Río-Gaztelurrutia +12
We report a previously unnoticed annually repeating phenomenon consisting of the daily formation of an extremely elongated cloud extending as far as 1800 km westward from Arsia Mon…
Saturn atmospheric dynamics one year after Cassini: Long-lived features and time variations in the drift of the Hexagon
R. Hueso, A. Sánchez-Lavega, J. F. Rojas +15
We examine Saturn's atmosphere with observations from ground-based telescopes and Hubble Space Telescope (HST). We present a detailed analysis of observations acquired during 2018.…
The onset and growth of the 2018 Martian Global Dust Storm
Agustín Sánchez-Lavega, Teresa del Río-Gaztelurrutia, Jorge Hernández-Bernal +1
We analyze the onset and initial expansion of the 2018 Martian Global Dust Storm (GDS 2018) using ground-based images in the visual range. This is the first case of a confirmed GDS…
Spatial distribution of Jovian clouds, hazes and colors from Cassini ISS multi-spectral images
Iñaki Ordóñez-Etxeberria, Ricardo Hueso, Agustin Sánchez-Lavega +1
The Cassini spacecraft made a gravity assist flyby of Jupiter in December 2000. The Imaging Science Subsystem (ISS) acquired images of the planet that covered the visual range with…
Potential Vorticity of Saturn's Polar Regions: Seasonality and Instabilities
Arrate Antuñano, Teresa Del Río-Gaztelurrutia, Agustín Sánchez-Lavega +2
We analyse the potential vorticity of Saturn's polar regions, as it is a fundamental dynamical tracer that enables us to improve our understanding of the dynamics of these regions…
Analysis of Neptune's 2017 Bright Equatorial Storm
Edward Molter, Imke de Pater, Statia Luszcz-Cook +22
We report the discovery of a large (8500 km diameter) infrared-bright storm at Neptune's equator in June 2017. We tracked the storm over a period of 7 months with high-cadenc…
Small impacts on the giant planet Jupiter
R. Hueso, M. Delcroix, A. Sánchez-Lavega +8
Video observations of Jupiter obtained by amateur astronomers over the past eight years have shown five flashes of light of 1-2 s. The first three of these events occurred on 3 Jun…
The Great Saturn Storm of 2010-2011
Agustín Sánchez-Lavega, Georg Fischer, Leigh N. Fletcher +5
In December 2010, a major storm erupted in Saturn's northern hemisphere near 37 degree planetographic latitude. This rather surprising event, occurring at an unexpected latitude an…

Kunio M. Sayanagi, Kevin H. Baines, Ulyana A. Dyudina +3
This book chapter, Saturn's Polar Atmosphere, is to be published by Cambridge University Press as part of a multi-volume work edited by Kevin Baines, Michael Flasar, Norbert Krupp,…
Giant Planet Observations with the James Webb Space Telescope
James Norwood, Julianne Moses, Leigh N. Fletcher +8
This white paper examines the benefit of the upcoming James Webb Space Telescope for studies of the Solar System's four giant planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. JWST's…
Limb imaging of the Venus O2 visible nightglow with the Venus Monitoring Camera
A. García Muñoz, R. Hueso, A. Sánchez-Lavega +4
We investigated the Venus O2 visible nightglow with imagery from the Venus Monitoring Camera on Venus Express. Drawing from data collected between April 2007 and January 2011, we s…
