Simple schematic of the chemical network of oxygen species based on integrated chemical loss term over altitude. This illustrates the fate of oxygen species from the external input (IDPs or comet) of H2O, CO, and CO2 in the atmosphere of Jupiter. For each species, the main loss processes are given. Photolysis is represented by hν and for reactions, the other reactant is given as a label. The percentage of the total integrated loss term over altitude is given with the altitude at which this process is at maximum. Blue: sub-chemical scheme of H2O-related species. Black: sub-chemical scheme of CO-related species. Green: sub-chemical scheme of CO2 -related species. Percentages change slightly depending on the amount of water in the atmosphere (i.e., before and after the comet impact), but the whole scheme stays the same. Values given here correspond to the state of the chemistry just after the influx of H2O due to the impact.
