JDP properties based on Juno’s observations and the propagation model. Distributions of JDP detections are organised as a function of a duration and b inter-pulse spacing using the left-hand axes. Each bin of both histograms is 0.2 ms. Using the right-hand axes, the orange lines are displayed for the corresponding cumulative probability. Note that the maximum of 16 ms for both duration and inter-pulse spacing is due to the length of the Waves LFR-Hi waveform snapshot. Density irregularities are modelled by a step function with height Ne0 and length D using the O mode straight-line propagation model. The estimates of length D are plotted as a function of c Ne0 and d Juno altitude using logarithmic scales. The grey error bar corresponds to one standard deviation (68% confidence interval) of Ne0 and D. The median values of the one standard deviation from the model fittings are 27.5% ± 2.5% for D and 2.5% ± 2.5% for Ne0 (Supplementary Fig. 9)
