  1. Equatorial Regions

    Linked via "rotation rates"

    Comparative Planetary Observations
    While specific atmospheric compositions vary, the pattern of intense diurnal thermal cycling and strong Hadley-like circulation is a common feature across solar system bodies where rotation rates are significant relative to insolation gradients. For instance, the cloud decks on Uranus exhibit [convection pa…
  2. Giant Planets

    Linked via "rotation rates"

    Atmospheric Dynamics and Meteorology
    The atmospheres of the giant planets are dominated by rapid, zonal jet streams and highly energetic, persistent storm systems. These dynamics are driven by internal heat flux combined with solar insolation, modulated by the planet's rapid rotation rates.
