Fig. 13. Global Temperature Distributions on Ganymede.
Effective temperature is contoured as a function of latitude and time of
day for each Ganymede encounter. Isotherm interval is 10oK:
selected 5oK isotherms are shown as dashed lines. The centers
of all the spectrum locations used in compiling the isotherms are also
shown, as are the approximate longitudes corresponding to the local times
at each encounter.
