    Evidence for the exposure of water ice on Titan's surface (2003)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2003-04-26
    Description: The smoggy stratosphere of Saturn's largest moon, Titan, veils its surface from view, except at narrow wavelengths centered at 0.83, 0.94, 1.07, 1.28, 1.58, 2.0, 2.9, and 5.0 micrometers. We derived a spectrum of Titan's surface within these "windows" and detected features characteristic of water ice. Therefore, despite the hundreds of meters of organic liquids and solids hypothesized to exist on Titan's surface, its icy bedrock lies extensively exposed.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Griffith, Caitlin A -- Owen, Tobias -- Geballe, Thomas R -- Rayner, John -- Rannou, Pascal -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2003 Apr 25;300(5619):628-30.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Planetary Sciences, University of Arizona, 1629 East University Boulevard, Tucson, AZ 85721-0092, USA. griffith@lpl.arizona.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12714742" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Evidence for a polar ethane cloud on Titan (2006)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-09-16
    Description: Spectra from Cassini's Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer reveal the presence of a vast tropospheric cloud on Titan at latitudes 51 degrees to 68 degrees north and all longitudes observed (10 degrees to 190 degrees west). The derived characteristics indicate that this cloud is composed of ethane and forms as a result of stratospheric subsidence and the particularly cool conditions near the moon's north pole. Preferential condensation of ethane, perhaps as ice, at Titan's poles during the winters may partially explain the lack of liquid ethane oceans on Titan's surface at middle and lower latitudes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Griffith, C A -- Penteado, P -- Rannou, P -- Brown, R -- Boudon, V -- Baines, K H -- Clark, R -- Drossart, P -- Buratti, B -- Nicholson, P -- McKay, C P -- Coustenis, A -- Negrao, A -- Jaumann, R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Sep 15;313(5793):1620-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Lunar and Planetary Laboratory, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ, 85721 USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16973876" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
