Forward and inverse kinetic energy cascades in Jupiter’s turbulent weather layer

Jupiter’s turbulent weather layer contains phenomena of many different sizes, from local storms up to the Great Red Spot and banded jets. The global circulation is driven by complex interactions with (as yet uncertain) small scale processes. We have calculated structure functions and kinetic energy...
