Fig. 5

Temperature and wind maps of WASP-18b taken from GCMs at a pressure level of 0.2 bar for two cases of drag. Top: efficient dragmodel (tdrag = 103 s) shows the circulation is day-to-night and longitudinally symmetric. Bottom: no drag model shows the circulation to the nightside is more efficient and driven by an equatorial jet.
