Extended Data Fig. 2: Kzz profiles used in this work.From: A subsolar oxygen abundance or a radiative region deep in Jupiter revealed by thermochemical modellingThe black profile is our nominal model (where Kzz = 108 cm.2s,−1 constant with altitude) which results in an oxygen abundance of 0.3 times the protosolar value. The blue profile (Kzz=2.5 × 106 cm.2s,−1 constant with altitude) results constrains oxygen to 2.2 times the protosolar value, that is, the Juno MWR nominal measurement of7. An intermediate constant value of 2.5 × 107 cm.2s−1 (purple line) will produce the observed CO with nearly solar oxygen. The red profile (variable with altitude) indicates the presence of a stable radiative layer at depth with a transition region such that Kzz reaches our nominal value at the levels where PH3 and GeH4 are quenched.Back to article page
