"This means that a greater proportion of sunlight is reflected by the cloud layer and the Earth becomes cooler."

It will prove difficult for the waning sunlight to scour out moisture on the surface, though, resulting in only a thinning cloud layer with a few breaks of sunshine by Tuesday afternoon at best.

Gazing below Jupiter’s dense cloud layer is key to learning about the more general energetic processes transferring heat out of gas-giant planets across the universe, says Rakesh Yadav, a theoretical planetary scientist at Harvard University and co-author of one of the papers.

A low cloud layer is moving across coastal Los Angeles County, bringing cooler temperatures and wind through Thursday before things heat up for the rest of the week, forecasters say.

A new paper by a team of astronomers, led by Victoria S. Meadows at the University of Washington, says that a more detailed model of Venus’s atmosphere developed in the 1990s shows that phosphine in the cloud layer would not even create an absorption line detectable from Earth.
