Gravity Waves in Titan's Atmosphere: A Comparison Between Linearized Wave Model Calculations and HASI Observations

Cui, Jun; Huang, Jianping; Hao, Yongqiang +3 more

The Huygens Atmospheric Structure Instrument (HASI) detected wavelike temperature fluctuations from 500 to 1,000 km on Titan. However, these fluctuation structures have not been satisfactorily reproduced by any theoretical model to date. In this study, we construct a full-wave model to simulate the observed gravity wave structure. The model includ…
