=== Atmosphere ===
{{Main|Atmosphere of Jupiter}}
The atmosphere of Jupiter is primarily composed of molecular hydrogen and helium, with a smaller amount of other compounds such as water, methane, hydrogen sulfide, and ammonia.<ref name="Atreya2003"/> Jupiter's atmosphere extends to a depth of approximately {{convert|3000|km|-3}} below the cloud layers.<ref name="Guillot_et_al_2004"/>

The orange and brown colours in the clouds of Jupiter are caused by upwelling compounds that change colour when they are exposed to ultraviolet light from the Sun.

Jupiter has a low [[axial tilt]], thus ensuring that the poles always receive less [[solar radiation]] than the planet's equatorial region. [[Convection]] within the interior of the planet transports energy to the poles, balancing out temperatures at the cloud layer.<ref name="burgess"/>{{rp|54}}

In 2000, an atmospheric feature formed in the southern hemisphere that is similar in appearance to the Great Red Spot, but smaller. This was created when smaller, white oval-shaped storms merged to form a single feature—these three smaller white ovals were formed in 1939–1940. The merged feature was named [[Oval BA]]. It has since increased in intensity and changed from white to red, earning it the nickname "Little Red Spot".<ref>{{cite web |first=Bill |last=Steigerwald |date=October 14, 2006 |url=http://www.nasa.gov/centers/goddard/news/topstory/2006/little_red_spot.html |title=Jupiter's Little Red Spot Growing Stronger |publisher=NASA |access-date=February 2, 2007 |archive-date=April 5, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120405155701/http://www.nasa.gov/centers/goddard/news/topstory/2006/little_red_spot.html |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite journal | title=Vertical structure of Jupiter's Oval BA before and after it reddened: What changed? | last1=Wong | first1=Michael H. | last2=de Pater | first2=Imke | last3=Asay-Davis | first3=Xylar | last4=Marcus | first4=Philip S. | last5=Go | first5=Christopher Y. | journal=Icarus | volume=215 | issue=1 |pages=211–225 | date=September 2011 | doi=10.1016/j.icarus.2011.06.032 | bibcode=2011Icar..215..211W | url=http://cfd.me.berkeley.edu/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/wong-publlished-1.pdf |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20221009/http://cfd.me.berkeley.edu/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/wong-publlished-1.pdf |archive-date=October 9, 2022 |url-status=live | access-date=April 27, 2022 }}</ref>

In April 2017, a "Great Cold Spot" was discovered in Jupiter's thermosphere at its [[Jupiter's North Pole|north pole]]. This feature is {{cvt|24000|km}} across, {{cvt|12000|km}} wide, and {{convert|200|C-change}} cooler than surrounding material. While this spot changes form and intensity over the short term, it has maintained its general position in the atmosphere for more than 15 years. It may be a giant [[vortex]] similar to the Great Red Spot, and appears to be [[Metastability|quasi-stable]] like the [[Vorticity|vortices]] in Earth's thermosphere. This feature may be formed by interactions between charged particles generated from Io and the strong magnetic field of Jupiter, resulting in a redistribution of heat flow.<ref name="Stallard et Al., 2017">{{cite journal |last1=Stallard |first1=Tom S. |last2=Melin |first2=Henrik |last3=Miller |first3=Steve |last4=Moore |first4=Luke |last5=O'Donoghue |first5=James |last6=Connerney |first6=John E.
