Fig. 1: The steady velocity field and the background radial component of the magnetic field at 0.9 RJ .
From: A rapidly time-varying equatorial jet in Jupiter’s deep interior
The projection is Hammer equal-area with the central meridian at 180° in System III coordinates (highlighted in grey); the central meridian is the zero line for the steady flow. The colour scale for the background magnetic field model is linear between the indicated limits. The flow velocity is scaled with latitude to account for the poleward convergence of meridians; the peak velocity (corresponding to the equatorial jet) is 0.86 cm s−1.
