The International Jupiter Watch is a program for the encouragement and coordination of the study of temporal variations in the Jovian system. The IJW coordinates 24-hour coverage of Jovian phenomena when such coverage is needed. It provides a mechanism for the rapid sharing of information to the community of scientists studying Jupiter. The measurements it fosters provide a long term context for ...
