Longitudinal Variations in the Stratosphere of Uranus from the Spitzer Infrared Spectrometer May 12, 2021 Glenn Orton, 2021, "Longitudinal Variations in the Stratosphere of Uranus from the Spitzer Infrared Spectrometer", https://doi.org/10.48577/jpl.QLS7MP, Icarus, JPL Open Repository NASA’s Spitzer Infrared Spectrometer (IRS) acquired mid-infrared (5-37 m) disc-averaged spectra of Uranus very near to its equinox in December 2007. A mean spectrum was constructed from observations of multiple central meridian longitudes, spaced equally around the planet, which...

Prior to the Juno mission, in situ measurements of Jupiter’s water abundance were obtained from the Galileo pr...
Jupiter’s Great Red Spot: Strong interactions with incoming anticyclones in 2019 Mar 15, 2021 Glenn Orton, 2021, "Jupiter’s Great Red Spot: Strong interactions with incoming anticyclones in 2019", https://doi.org/10.48577/jpl.PFAQZH, Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, JPL Open Repository Jupiter’s Great Red Spot (GRS), a giant anticyclone, is the largest and longest-lived of all the vortices observed in planetary atmospheres. During its history, the GRS has shrunk to half its size since 1879, and encountered many smaller anticyclones and other dynamical features...
