The Thermal Structure and Composition of Jupiter's Great Red Spot From JWST/MIRI
Jake Harkett, Leigh N. Fletcher, Oliver R. T. King +15
Jupiter's Great Red Spot (GRS) was mapped by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST)/Mid-Infrared Instrument (4.9-27.9 micron) in July and August 2022. These observations took place…
The Origin of Jupiter's Great Red Spot
Agustín Sánchez-Lavega, Enrique García-Melendo, Jon Legarreta +3
Jupiter's Grat Red Spot (GRS) is the largest and longest-lived vortex of all solar system planets but its lifetime is debated and its formation mechanism remains hidden. G. D. Cass…
Temperature and composition disturbances in the southern auroral region of Jupiter revealed by JWST/MIRI
Pablo Rodríguez-Ovalle, Thierry Fouchet, Sandrine Guerlet +17
Jupiters south polar region was observed by JWST Mid Infrared Instrument in December 2022. We used the Medium Resolution Spectrometer mode to provide new information about Jupiters…
Dynamics of Saturn's Polar Regions
A. Antuñano, T. del Río-Gaztelurrutia, A. Sánchez-Lavega +1
We analyze data retrieved by the Imaging Science System onboard the Cassini spacecraft to study the horizontal velocity and vorticity fields of Saturn's Polar Regions (latitudes 60…
A model of scattered thermal radiation for Venus from 3 to 5 m
A. García Muñoz, P. Wolkenberg, A. Sánchez-Lavega +2
Thermal radiation becomes a prominent feature in the continuum spectrum of Venus longwards of 3 m. The emission is traceable to the upper cloud and haze layers in the plan…
Instantaneous Three-dimensional Thermal Structure of the South Polar Vortex of Venus
I. Garate-Lopez, A. García Muñoz, R. Hueso +1
The Venus thermal radiation spectrum exhibits the signature of absorption bands. By means of inversion techniques, those bands enable the retrieval of atmospheric temperatur…
An Enduring Rapidly Moving Storm as a Guide to Saturn's Equatorial Jet's Complex Structure
A. Sánchez-Lavega, E. García-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…
Six years of Venus winds at the upper cloud level from UV, visible and near infrared observations from VIRTIS on Venus Express
Ricardo Hueso, Javier Peralta, Itziar Garate-Lopez +2
Venus Express provided a long-term monitoring of Venus atmosphere. Several works focused on the dynamics of the upper cloud visible on the day-side in ultraviolet images sensitive…
A chaotic long-lived vortex at Venus southern pole
I. Garate-Lopez, R. Hueso, A. Sánchez-Lavega +3
Polar vortices are common in the atmospheres of rapidly rotating planets [1-4]. On Earth and Mars they are tied to the surface and their existence follows the seasonal insolation c…
Multilayer hazes over Saturn's hexagon from Cassini ISS limb images
A. Sánchez-Lavega, A. García-Muñoz, T. del Río-Gaztelurrutia +5
In June 2015, Cassini high-resolution images of Saturn's limb southwards of the planet's hexagonal wave revealed a system of at least six stacked haze layers above the upper cloud…
