Structure of Jupiter's High-Latitude Storms: Folded Filamentary Regions Revealed by Juno
L. N. Fletcher, Z. Zhang, S. Brown +17
Sprawling, turbulent cloud formations dominate the meteorology of Jupiter's mid-to-high latitudes, known as Folded Filamentary Regions (FFRs). A multi-wavelength characterisation b…
Wind shear and the role of eddy vapor transport in driving water convection on Jupiter
Ramanakumar Sankar, Michael H Wong, Csaba Palotai +1
Recent observations of convection in the jovian atmosphere have demonstrated that convection is strongly concentrated at specific locations on planet. For instance, observations of…
Jovian Vortex Hunter: a citizen science project to study Jupiter's vortices
Ramanakumar Sankar, Shawn Brueshaber, Lucy Fortson +4
The Jovian atmosphere contains a wide diversity of vortices, which have a large range of sizes, colors and forms in different dynamical regimes. The formation processes for these v…
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…
Atmospheric Science Questions for a Uranian Probe
Emma K. Dahl, Naomi Rowe-Gurney, Glenn S. Orton +5
The Ice Giants represent a unique and relatively poorly characterized class of planets that have been largely unexplored since the brief Voyager 2 flyby in the late 1980's. Uranus…
