Temporal Variability of Titan's Middle-Atmospheric Zonal Winds from Southern Fall to Late Winter (2016-2023)

Martin A. Cordiner, Yuan Lian, Juan M. Lora +10

Previous ALMA observations have revealed unexpectedly strong and rapid variations in Titan's high-altitude equatorial zonal winds, which present a challenge to our understanding of…

A Reduced-Order Coupled Oscillator Model for the Emergence of Episodic Convection

Sooman Han, Soong-Ki Kim, Bowen Fan +3

Extreme precipitation is a societal concern, and understanding tropical moist convection is increasingly important in a warming climate. Climate simulations show that, under hothou…

Zonal winds in Titan's middle atmosphere from a stellar occultation observed with Keck adaptive optics

Theresa C. Marlin, Eliot F. Young, Katherine de Kleer +9

We present spatially resolved Keck/NIRC2 images of a stellar occultation by Titan on September 5, 2022 and compare them to predictions from concurrent ALMA observations and a suite…

The Atmosphere of Titan in Late Northern Summer from JWST and Keck Observations

Conor A. Nixon, Bruno Bézard, Thomas Cornet +42

Saturn's moon Titan undergoes a long annual cycle of 29.45 Earth years. Titan's northern winter and spring were investigated in detail by the Cassini-Huygens spacecraft (2004-2017)…

The impact of lake shape and size on lake breezes and air-lake exchanges on Titan

Audrey Chatain, Scot C. R. Rafkin, Alejandro Soto +5

Titan, the largest moon of Saturn, has many lakes on its surface, formed mainly of liquid methane. Like water lakes on Earth, these methane lakes on Titan likely profoundly affect…
