Multi-decade observations of Jupiter’s stratospheric temperatures show that their quasiperiodic oscillation locked into a new period after a major atmospheric perturbation in 1992, from 5.7 years to 3.9 years. This is different from Earth (and presumably from Saturn), where the period returned to its original value after substantial atmospheric disruptions.
