Atomic oxygen features at 1304 and 1356 A detected by the Orbiting Ultraviolet Spectrometer (OUVS) on Pioneer Venus are compared to theoretical emission models. Limb scans from three orbits of the OI 1304 A emission were analyzed using an improved model which removes the restrictive assumptions of complete frequency redistribution and isothermal multiple scattering. Data-model comparisons indicate the OI 1304 A emission rates observed are consistent with an 0 density 40% of the BUS model. It is also found that the emission at 1356 A is consistent with the sum of the CO fourth positive band at 1352 A and the OI doublet at 1356, 1358 A, if an 0 density equal to 40% of the BUS model is used to calculate the OI emission rate.
