Characterising Saturn's vertical temperature structure from Cassini/CIRS

Thermal infrared spectra of Saturn from 10-1400 cm(-1) at 15 cm(-1) spectral resolution and a spatial resolution of 1 degrees-2 degrees latitude have been obtained by the Cassini Composite Infrared Spectrometer [Flasar, F.M., and 44 colleagues, 2004. Space Sci. Rev. 115, 169-297]. Many thousands of...
