The analysis of the previous (1981–1999) and recent (2000–2007) observations of Jupiter has confirmed the semiannual variations in the north-south asymmetry of polarized radiation in the polar regions of the planet. The processes of polar aerosol formation are modulated by the position of the planet relative to the solar equator.
