[HTML][HTML] First direct measurement of auroral and equatorial jets in the stratosphere of Jupiter
Context. The tropospheric wind pattern in Jupiter consists of alternating prograde and
retrograde zonal jets with typical velocities of up to 100 ms− 1 around the equator. At much …

A hexagon in Saturn's northern stratosphere surrounding the emerging summertime polar vortex
Saturn's polar stratosphere exhibits the seasonal growth and dissipation of broad, warm
vortices poleward of~ 75° latitude, which are strongest in the summer and absent in winter …

Spatial Variations in the Altitude of the CH4 Homopause at Jupiter's Mid-to-high Latitudes, as Constrained from IRTF-TEXES Spectra
We present an analysis of IRTF-TEXES spectra of Jupiter's mid-to-high latitudes in order to
test the hypothesis that the CH 4 homopause altitude is higher in Jupiter's auroral regions …
