متن کاملDimming Titan Revealed by the Cassini Observations
Here we report the temporal variation of Titan's emitted energy with the Cassini/CIRS observations. In the northern hemisphere, the hemispheric-average emitted power decreased from 2007 to 2009 and increased from 2009 to 2012-13, which make the net change insignificant (0.1 ± 0.2%) during the period 2007-2013. The decrease from 2007 to 2009 is mainly due to the cooling around the stratospause, ...
متن کاملFluvial channels on Titan: Initial Cassini RADAR observations
Cassini radar images show a variety of fluvial channels on Titan’s surface, often several hundreds of kilometers in length. Some (predominantly at lowand mid-latitude) are radar-bright and braided, resembling desert washes where fines have been removed by energetic surface liquid flow, presumably from methane rainstorms. Others (predominantly at high latitudes) are radar-dark and meandering and...
متن کاملThe sand seas of Titan: Cassini RADAR observations of longitudinal dunes.
The most recent Cassini RADAR images of Titan show widespread regions (up to 1500 kilometers by 200 kilometers) of near-parallel radar-dark linear features that appear to be seas of longitudinal dunes similar to those seen in the Namib desert on Earth. The Ku-band (2.17-centimeter wavelength) images show approximately 100-meter ridges consistent with duneforms and reveal flow interactions with ...
متن کاملShoreline Features of Titan’s Ontario Lacus from Cassini/VIMS Observations
We analyze observations of Titan’s south polar lake Ontario Lacus obtained by Cassini ’s Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer during the 38th flyby of Titan (T38; 2007 December 5). The near-closest-approach observations have the highest signal-to-noise, the finest spatial resolution, and the least atmospheric influence of any near-infrared lake observation to date. We use the large, spatial...
