The origin and evolution of Saturn's 2011-2012 stratospheric vortex

Abstract:: The planet-encircling springtime storm in Saturn's troposphere (December 2010-July 2011, Fletcher, L.N. et al. [2011]. Science 332, 1413-1414; Sánchez-Lavega, A. et al. [2011]. Nature 475, 71-74; Fischer, G. et al. [2011].

Thermal infrared (IR) spectroscopy from the Cassini Composite Infrared Spectrometer (...
