Super-adiabatic Temperature Gradient at Jupiter's Equatorial Zone and Implications for the Water Abundance
Cheng Li, Michael Allison, Sushil Atreya +12
The temperature structure of a giant planet was traditionally thought to be an adiabat assuming convective mixing homogenizes entropy. The only in-situ measurement made by the Gali…
Highly depleted alkali metals in Jupiter's deep atmosphere
Ananyo Bhattacharya, Cheng Li, Sushil K. Atreya +12
Water and ammonia vapors are known to be the major sources of spectral absorption at pressure levels observed by the microwave radiometer (MWR) on Juno. However, the brightness tem…
Jupiter's Temperature Structure: A Reassessment of the Voyager Radio Occultation Measurements
Pranika Gupta, Sushil K. Atreya, Paul G. Steffes +12
The thermal structure of planetary atmospheres is an essential input for predicting and retrieving the distribution of gases and aerosols, as well as the bulk chemical abundances.…
The Origin and Evolution of Saturn: A Post-Cassini Perspective
Sushil K. Atreya, Aurélien Crida, Tristan Guillot +5
The Saturn System has been studied in detail by the Cassini-Huygens Mission. A major thrust of those investigations has been to understand how Saturn formed and evolved and to plac…
Jupiter's Temperate Belt/Zone Contrasts Revealed at Depth by Juno Microwave Observations
L. N. Fletcher, F. A. Oyafuso, M. Allison +12
Juno Microwave Radiometer (MWR) observations of Jupiter's mid-latitudes reveal a strong correlation between brightness temperature contrasts and zonal winds, confirming that the ba…
Evidence for multiple Ferrel-like cells on Jupiter
Keren Duer, Nimrod Gavriel, Eli Galanti +14
Jupiter's atmosphere is dominated by multiple jet streams which are strongly tied to its 3D atmospheric circulation. Lacking a rigid bottom boundary, several models exist for how t…
