Combined chemical and hydrodynamic modeling offers a powerful tool beyond Jupiter. Scientists can apply similar techniques to Uranus, Neptune, and gas rich exoplanets. Such planets remain difficult to ...
Jupiter and Saturn host some of the strangest weather in the Solar System, and nowhere is that more obvious than at their ...
What processes are responsible for shaping Jupiter and Saturn’s polar weather? This is what a recent study published in the ...
Over the years, passing spacecraft have observed mystifying weather patterns at the poles of Jupiter and Saturn. The two ...
"I don't think anyone's made this connection between the surface fluid pattern and the interior properties of these planets." ...
A new computer model indicates Jupiter’s massive winds are generated from deep within the giant planet’s interior, a UCLA scientist and international colleagues report today in the journal Nature.
Scientists studying Jupiter and Saturn’s polar storms suggest their dramatic differences arise from deep interior properties. Simulations show that “harder” or “softer” gas layers beneath the storms ...
