The Role of Planetary-Scale Waves on the Stratospheric Superrotation in Titan's Atmosphere
Yuan Lian, Cecilia Leung, Claire Newman +1
We analyze simulation results from the TitanWRF global circulation model to understand the mechanisms that maintain the equatorial superrotation in Titan's stratosphere. We find th…
Variability in Titan's Mesospheric HCN and Temperature Structure as Observed by ALMA
A. E. Thelen, C. A. Nixon, R. Cosentino +5
The temperature structure of Titan's upper atmosphere exhibits large variability resulting from numerous spatially and temporally irregular external energy sources, seasonal change…
Science goals and new mission concepts for future exploration of Titan's atmosphere geology and habitability: Titan POlar Scout/orbitEr and In situ lake lander and DrONe explorer (POSEIDON)
Sébastien Rodriguez, Sandrine Vinatier, Daniel Cordier +61
In response to ESA Voyage 2050 announcement of opportunity, we propose an ambitious L-class mission to explore one of the most exciting bodies in the Solar System, Saturn largest m…
Titan: Earth-like on the Outside, Ocean World on the Inside
Shannon M. MacKenzie, Samuel P. D. Birch, Sarah Horst +30
Thanks to the Cassini-Huygens mission, Titan, the pale orange dot of Pioneer and Voyager encounters has been revealed to be a dynamic, hydrologically-shaped, organic-rich ocean wor…
The case for a multi-channel polarization sensitive LIDAR for investigation of insolation-driven ices and atmospheres
Adrian J. Brown, Gorden Videen, Evgenij Zubko +20
All LIDAR instruments are not the same, and advancement of LIDAR technology requires an ongoing interest and demand from the community to foster further development of the required…
Measuring Mars Atmospheric Winds From Orbit
Scott Guzewich J. B. Abshire. M. M. Baker, J. M. Battalio, T. Bertrand +38
Wind is the process that connects Mars' climate system. Measurements of Mars atmospheric winds from orbit would dramatically advance our understanding of Mars and help prepare for…
