Equatorial Waves and Superrotation in the Stratosphere of a Titan General Circulation Model
Neil T. Lewis, Nicholas A. Lombardo, Peter L. Read +1
We investigate the characteristics of equatorial waves associated with the maintenance of superrotation in the stratosphere of a Titan general circulation model. A variety of equat…
Exoplanets and the Sun
J. Y-K. Cho, H. Th. Thrastarson, T. T. Koskinen +4
We review the recent progress in understanding the jet structures on exoplanets as well as on and inside the Sun. The emphasis is on the more robust aspects of observation and nume…
The dependence of global super-rotation on planetary rotation rate
Neil T. Lewis, Greg J. Colyer, Peter L. Read
An atmosphere may be described as globally super-rotating if its total zonal angular momentum exceeds that associated with solid-body co-rotation with the underlying planet. In thi…
The turbulent dynamics of Jupiter's and Saturn's weather layers: order out of chaos?
Peter L Read, Roland M B Young, Daniel Kennedy
The weather layers of the gas giant planets, Jupiter and Saturn, comprise the shallow atmospheric layers that are influenced energetically by a combination of incoming solar radiat…
Shadowing the rotating annulus. Part II: Gradient descent in the perfect model scenario
Roland M. B. Young, Roman Binter, Falk Niehörster +2
Shadowing trajectories are model trajectories consistent with a sequence of observations of a system, given a distribution of observational noise. The existence of such trajectorie…
Comparative terrestrial atmospheric circulation regimes in simplified global circulation models: II. energy budgets and spectral transfers
Peter Read, Fachreddin Tabataba-Vakili, Yixiong Wang +4
The energetics of possible global atmospheric circulation patterns in an Earth-like atmosphere are explored using a simplified GCM based on the University of Hamburg's Portable Uni…
