Arctic ocean is europa: tidal stress from jupiter and europa is thought to cause io"s volcanism, ring of jupiter discovered by voyager i as it passed jupiter, the main ring and halo are supplied by metis and adrastea. In jupiter"s atmosphere, belts are dark, low-pressure regions and zones are bright, high-pressure regions. The convective process is driven by contrasting temperatures in neighboring regions. ; individual storm systems can interact, resulting in the storm growing or fading out. ; storms are localized features, confined and powered by zonal flow: the moon that experiences the most tidal heating is io. Io: hot growing lava visible in some photos; volcanoes currently erupting; source of ionized gas in the donut-shaped charged particle belt around.
