Numerical Modeling of Atmospheric Jet Streams on Jupiter and Saturn: Their Formation and Stability

I studied the atmospheric jet streams of Jupiter and Saturn through numerical simulations. Jupiter and Saturn have approximately 30 and 15 jet streams, respectively, alternatively blowing eastward and westward at the cloud level. My studies are motivated by recent space probe observations of the gia...
