Scientific paper

It is demonstrated that the analysis in both intensity and polarization of equivalent widths of strong Venusian absorption lines can provide the most accurate location of the visible cloud top as well as the ratios of scale heights of CO2 to cloud particles and CO (or other appropriate minor constituent) to CO2. It is also shown that spectropolarimetric observations at different phase angles can provide a vertical sounding of the upper levels in the cloud. Equivalent widths in polarization are measurable on Venus with good infrared detectors, and their value is predicted to be approximately a few percent of those in intensity.
