Simultaneous observations of stratospheric temperature and hydrocarbon species acquired by the Cassini Composite Infrared Spectrometer (CIRS) (Nixon, et al., 2010) and the vertical and latitudinal distributions of aerosol retrieved from the Cassini Imaging Science Subsystem (ISS) provide the necessary data for an accurate simulation of the state of the stratosphere of Jupiter. The hydrocarbon distributions, the spatial variation of whose abundances is controlled by the stratospheric circulation, themselves can confirm the model formulation of global mass transport processes. In this study, a two-dimensional chemical transport model will be forced by output from a physics-based three-dimensional global circulation model, providing a model-measurement inter-comparison with stratospheric tracer species that can be tied back to specific dynamical processes.
