The subsurface oceans on Jupiter and Saturn's moons, including Europa, Ganymede, Enceladus, and Titan, are crucial in the search for extraterrestrial life. These icy satellites not only have water but also non-aqueous components like salts and sulfur on their surfaces. Organic materials have been found in geysers at Enceladus' South pole, emphasizing their astrobiological potential. To explore planetary habitability, understanding oceanic circulation is key for heat and matter transport. We've developed a new numerical setup to simulate the hidden oceans of these icy moons. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.icarus.2024.116047
The JUpiter Modeling Platform is designed to explore macroturbulence in the atmosphere of the giant planets. The project received funding from the European Union’s horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement N° 797012. Click to know more about JUMP...
