Water vertical profiles as a function of pressure derived from Moses et al. (2015) and from Moses, priv. comm. Their original photochemical profiles are depicted by the thick solid blue, red, and black lines, respectively, in the pre-storm conditions, in the haze sublimation model, and the vertical transport with haze sublimation model. They are derived from a disc-averaged value for the water influx at the top of the atmosphere. As these profiles originate from a disc-averaged observation of water in the stratosphere of Saturn, we first had to rescale the pre-storm profile as a function of latitude following the water distribution found by Cavalié et al. (2019) with an additional fitting factor to reproduce the January 2011 data. The resulting water profiles are plotted in blue at different latitudes. The purple and grey areas represent the best fit results for July 2011 with the two rescaled water models in the beacon.
