Summary
| DescriptionWinds in Jupiter’s Great Red Spot.jpg |
English: Data and analysis are described in "Evolution of the Horizontal Winds in Jupiter’s Great Red Spot from One Jovian Year of HST/WFC3 Maps" by Michael H. Wong and coauthors, in Geophysical Research Letters, DOI: 10.1029/2021GL093982.
By analysing images taken by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope between 2009 and 2020, researchers found that the average wind speed just within the boundaries of the Great Red Spot, set off by the outer green circle, have increased by up to 8 percent and exceed 640 kilometres per hour. In contrast, the winds near the storm's innermost region, set off by a smaller green ring, are moving significantly more slowly. Both move counterclockwise. |
