Longitudinal variability in Jupiter's zonal winds derived from multi-wavelength HST observations

Wong, Michael H.; Morales-Juberías, Raúl; Gaulme, Patrick +3 more

Multi-wavelength Hubble Space Telescope (HST) images of Jupiter from the Outer Planets Atmospheres Legacy (OPAL) and Wide Field Coverage for Juno (WFCJ) programs in 2015, 2016, and 2017 are used to derive wind profiles as a function of latitude and longitude. Wind profiles are typically zonally averaged to reduce measurement uncertainties. However…
