Venus Atmosphere: Winds

Scientific paper

As a result of reprocessing the infrared Fourier-spectrometry data aboard the Venera-15 spacecraft, three-dimensional fields of the thermal wind are obtained in the coordinates latitude-altitude-solar longitude. A mid-latitude jet located near the upper boundary of cloudiness is the main feature of the thermal wind fields. It is shown that the wind velocity in the jet is variable with time. These variations are solar-related. On the night side, the wind velocity is systematically lower than on the dayside. Along with changing wind velocity, the mid-latitude jet changes its positions. In a single observation for the southern hemisphere, a low-latitude jet was discovered.
