JWST observations of Sz 65 and Sz 66 reveal higher cold-to-hot water ratios in the secondary disk, attributed to its unstructured dust disk enabling efficient pebble drift across the snow line.
JWST spectra of EC 53 indicate CO fundamental and H2O bending absorption weaken by ~2 during burst due to continuum dilution, with relative veiling yielding hot-continuum ratios of 2.9 and 1.71 and viscous-disk accretion-rate ratios of ~3.6 and ~2.0.

EPISODE II: Variability in the CO and H$_2$O rovibrational absorption lines in a periodically variable protostar EC 53
JWST spectra of EC 53 indicate CO fundamental and H2O bending absorption weaken by ~2 during burst due to continuum dilution, with relative veiling yielding hot-continuum ratios of 2.9 and 1.71 and viscous-disk accretion-rate ratios of ~3.6 and ~2.0.
