Scientific paper

The distribution of atomic nitrogen and nitric oxide above 100 km in the Venus dayside ionosphere, and the supply of N atoms to the nightside, are presently addressed by a photochemical-diffusive model of the Venusian dayside ionosphere which has been validated through comparisons of the calculated ion and electron density with Pioneer-Venus Orbiter ion mass spectrometer measurements. The calculated N(S-4) value is noted to be in good agreement with both the vertical distribution and the local time dependence observed with the Pioneer-Venus neutral mass spectrometer above 150 km.
