In this study, we use magnetic field line mapping to project Juno's trajectories onto a centrifugal symmetry surface and identify possible torus crossings. By removing the background magnetic field and statistically analyzing the fluctuations, periodic magnetic perturbations inside the outer torus region were detected. Our results show that: (a) These waves are spatially localized Ultra Low Frequency waves, (b) the intensity of the waves appears to be spatially correlated with IPT emissions, and (c) there is significant north–south asymmetry of power spectral density. We conclude that the local plasma density variation in IPT controls the amplitude and energy of waves. The observed hemispheric asymmetry is possibly due to different particle precipitation efficiencies between the northern and southern hemispheres. It may also be affected by different magnetic field intensities. Our results suggest that the IPT not only supplies plasma to Jupiter's magnetosphere but also serves as an important source of magnetospheric disturbances. This implies that IPT may be playing an essential role in Jovian magnetospheric dynamics and may hint at an intricate energy coupling process among different layers of the Jupiter system.</p>","PeriodicalId":16101,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets","volume":"131 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2026-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149146091","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we report the first direct experimental determination of the complete set of aggregate elastic moduli of tholins using Brillouin spectroscopy. Measurements conducted on tholin powder samples yielded a bulk modulus of 11 (2) GPa and a shear modulus of 3.9 (5) GPa, from which we derive a Young's modulus of 11 (1) GPa and a Poisson's ratio of 0.34 (3). Thin-film samples synthesized under slightly different conditions yield similar results. Compared with other Titan-relevant organic compounds, tholins exhibit the highest elastic stiffness measured to date, exceeding even H<sub>2</sub>O ice in both bulk and shear moduli. These results support the interpretation that complex organics contribute significantly to the mechanical stability and transport behavior of Titan's equatorial dune sediments. Measurements following prolonged atmospheric exposure reveal persistent stiffening of tholins that remains after vacuum treatment, likely associated with minor chemical modification and physical reorganization, highlighting the importance of controlled sample handling for future laboratory investigations.

GDEs occur only every few Mars Years (MYs), but the reasons behind this inter-annual variability remain poorly understood. The question whether surface dust exhaustion and subsequent replenishment explain this variability remains open. How is dust being seasonally and annually redistributed across the Martian surface? Are global and regional scale dust reservoirs being depleted and replenished? We use the Planetary Climate Model where the injection of dust from the surface into the atmosphere is driven by observation-based daily maps of the Column Dust Optical Depth. The transport and deposition of dust are free-running, that is, follow the modeled general circulation. This allows us to quantify the net removal or accumulation of dust across the Martian surface for MYs 24 to 36. We find that dust is mainly redistributed from the mid-latitudes of both hemispheres to the tropical and polar regions. We further find that this pattern is persistent across all MYs, even in years with GDEs. This indicates that global and regional scale depletion/replenishment cycles of surface dust reservoirs rather do not explain the inter-annual variability of GDEs. We further show that shifting the GDE onset timing would yield similar redistribution of dust from the mid-latitudes to the tropical and polar regions, meaning the persistence of the aforementioned redistribution patterns might be robust under the current Martian climate. These findings lead to a more constrained understanding of the inter-annual variability of GDEs and the Martian climate.</p>","PeriodicalId":16101,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets","volume":"131 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2026-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2025JE009517","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149145928","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We find that, at most, primary impact melt from a source crater will comprise no more than 2%–3% of material at the surface above its buried rim, and <1% elsewhere. Furthermore, disruption of the ejecta stratigraphy by ballistic sedimentation and surface mixing due to impact gardening will make sampling specific sources more difficult.
