Scientific paper

Thermal maps of Venus on 16 days during a span of 43 days just before inferior conjunction were obtained during 1973-1974 and are described. The research represents a first step towards the goal of using ground-based observations to determine the time and space scales of dynamical events taking place in the Venus clouds. The described average limb darkening differs from that reported by Ingersoll and Orton (1974). Real day-to-day changes in limb darkening, one occasion of a 4-day repetition of a thermal anomaly, solar-related anomalies, and a southern hemisphere solar-related disturbance are discussed.
