The long-term steady motion of Saturn's Hexagon and the stability of its enclosed jet-stream under seasonal changes
A. Sánchez-Lavega, T. del RÃo-Gaztelurrutia, R. Hueso +15
We investigate the long-term motion of Saturn's North-Pole Hexagon and the structure of its associated eastward jet, using Cassini ISS and ground-based images from 2008 to 2014. We…
An Enduring Rapidly Moving Storm as a Guide to Saturn's Equatorial Jet's Complex Structure
A. Sánchez-Lavega, E. GarcÃa-Melendo, S. Perez-Hoyos +14
Saturn has an intense and broad eastward equatorial jet with a complex three-dimensional structure mixed with time variability. The equatorial region experiences strong seasonal in…
Moist Convective Storms on Saturn
AgustÃn Sánchez-Lavega, Georg Fischer, Cheng Li +2
Convective storms (CS) on Saturn appear as bright clouds, irregular in shape and rapidly changing over time, accompanied by lightning phenomena. They cover a wide range of size sca…
Dynamical phenomena in the Martian atmosphere through Mars Express imaging
A. Sánchez-Lavega, T. del RÃo-Gaztelurrutia, A. Spiga +5
This review describes the dynamic phenomena in the atmosphere of Mars that are visible in images taken in the visual range through cloud formation and dust lifting. We describe the…
