Seasonal evolution of Saturn's polar temperatures and composition

Seasonal evolution of Saturn's polar temperatures and composition

The seasonal evolution of Saturn's polar atmospheric temperatures and hydrocarbon composition is derived from a decade of Cassini Composite Infrared Spectrometer (CIRS) 7-16μm thermal infrared spectroscopy. We construct a near-continuous record of atmospheric variability poleward of 60° from no...
