Development of a Cloud Convection Model for Jupiter's Atmosphere << Prev | Index| Next >>

Acknowledgements

Development of the cloud convection model and long-time numerical simulation of cloud convection are performed by using NEC SX-6 at the PLAnning and INformation center of ISAS/JAXA, Japan, SR-11000 at the Computing and Communication Center, Hokkaido University, Japan, and XT-4 at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan. The authors would like to thank Dr. M. Yamada for his idea of visualization, and Drs. M. Ishiwatari, K. Kuramoto, and S. Watanabe for their useful comments. The products of GFD Dennou Club such as Dennou Club Library (DCL) [18], products of Dennou Ruby Project [19], and gt4f90io library [20] are used for graphics. This research is supported by the cooperative research program of the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan and the Grant-in-Aid for Basic Research from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Science and Technology, Japan.
