Illustration of the implementation of the super-rotational pattern with a 1D calculation of the atmosphere. See Fig. 3 for a detailed description of the figure and geometrical consequences on the computation. Left: since the wind is coming towards the observer for the morning terminator and away form the observer for the evening terminator, a slice of the atmosphere has to be calculated for each. Right: calculated slices are then rotated by π to get the full atmosphere (one half each). In the current model the wind does not change with latitude, creating a super-rotational stream that is constant tangentially over each atmospheric shell.
