Titan H2O Clouds + ISS/UVIS
Water in Titan's Atmosphere Image Cube Refinements Application to Enceladus Plume Locations Dione Example of co-analysis
2
Prediction of H2O Clouds
Barth + Toon Model Predictions Based on UVIS temperature profile Maximum H2O abundance at 540 km N = 0.4 cm-3 H2O Particle size 0.01 microns
3
Data Sets Spica (Alpha Vir) and Shaula (Lambda Sco) occultations at T-B (December 13, 2004)
4
H2O Absorption Spectrum
5
Hydrocarbon Spectra CH4 C2H2 C2H4 C2H6 HCN
6
H20 Sensitivity
7
H2O Sensitivity with Hydrocarbons
8
Hints of H2O From Spica Occultation
9
H2O In Shaula Occultation
10
H2O Slopes Slope change at 1100 km Slope change at 900 km
Slope between 1640Å and 1825Å Slope change at 1100 km Slope change at 900 km
11
Hydrocarbon analysis Correction of unattenuated spectrum with only hydrocarbons from Shemansky et al. occultation paper. At 550 km, log(nl) = CH4: C2H2: 17.5 C2H4: C2H6: 16.5 HCN:

Spica Correction with H2O
km spectrum Hydrocarbon Model Hydrocarbon + Water
15
Shaula Occultation
16
Corrected Shaula Occultation
km spectrum Hydrocarbon Model Hydrocarbon + Water
17
Spatial Variability H2O clouds needed in northern hemisphere, but not southern. Future solar/stellar occultations should provide more tests.
