Temporal Evolution of Titan’s Stratospheric Temperatures and Trace Gases from a Two-dimensional Retrieval of Cassini Composite Infrared Spectrometer Data

We use a two-dimensional (2D) radiative transfer model of Titan, which allows the atmospheric structure to vary in both altitude and latitude, to retrieve the spatial distribution of temperature, haze extinction, and C _2 H _2 , C _2 H _6 , C _3 H _8 , CH _3 C _2 H, C _4 H _2 , and HCN gases, from C...
