Jovia is an iron rich rocky planet with all the conditions for a successful terraforming.
Following a recent ice age, the planet's axial tilt of 9 deg keeps most of the water locked in the poles as ice, while the ecuator is a hot desert. All that is needed to kick start the warm meteorological phenomenons is a slight increase in the average temperature. This will increase the atmospheric water vapor content which in turn will amplify the CO2 greenhouse gas effect.
The suface iron oxide dust blown by the wind in the high atmosphere gives the reddish sky and protection from deadly UV radiation which allows vegetation to form near the seas or where ice started to melt.
