Analysis of Jupiter North Equatorial Belt hot spots in the 4-5 mu m range from Galileo near-infrared mapping spectrometer observations: Measurements of cloud opacity, water, and ammonia

This paper presents the analysis of hot spot observations in the Jovian North Equatorial Belt obtained with the near-infrared mapping spectrometer (NIMS) instrument on the Galileo spacecraft. The data were acquired during the closest approach sequences between June 1996 and April 1997. We focus on t...
