et al.

Abstract: Observations of transiting gas giant exoplanets have revealed a pervasive depletion of methane 1 – 4 , which has only recently been identified atmospherically 5 , 6 . The depletion is thought to be maintained by disequilibrium processes such as photochemistry or mixing from a hotter interior 7 – 9 . However, the interiors are largely unconstrained alo… Show more
