A numerical model to explore the possibility that the dissipation of two upward propagating internal gravity waves, identified in the temperature measurements of the Galileo Probe, provide the energy to maintain Jupiter's high thermospheric temperatures βΌ900 K is used. The propagation and dissipatio
