A New Model for Understanding Jupiter's Climate
Climate patterns and storms on Jupiter can have striking similarities to those on Earth. One such pattern is a four-year temperature cycle in the Jovian upper atmosphere called the QQO. This cycle has a little sibling in Earth's...

NASA | ATREX Studies Earth's Ultra-High Super Wind
High in the sky, 60 to 65 miles above Earth's surface, winds rush through a little understood region of Earth's atmosphere at speeds of 200 to 300 miles per hour. Lower than a typical satellite's orbit, higher than where most planes fly,...

NASA | Rattling Jet Stream on Jupiter
New movies of Jupiter are the first to catch an invisible wave shaking up one of the giant planet's jet streams, an interaction that also takes place in Earth's atmosphere and influences the weather.

Hurricane Sandy: Why is it a 'superstorm'?
Hurricane Sandy is unusual because as it heads north it will collide with a wintery, cold front coming down from the Arctic. The collision will happen near the jetstream. The storms are expected to interact with the jet stream and...

Weather Things: Winter
The orbit of Earth on a tilted axis around the sun leads to the seasons. The resulting change of angle of the sun, and length of day controls how warm we get at different times of the year. With those changes in seasons come changes in...
