Physics

Scientific paper

The present work examined transport processes of heat, material and momentum in the Venusian cloud layer using a microscale atmospheric model. The temporal variation of convective activity with periods of a few hours and the wave-like profile of the static stability in the upper cloud are found in several cases. The eddy diffusion coefficients are estimated from the model output. Such microscale simulations are expected to contribute to physical interpretations of the balloon and radio science experiment data and improvements of the eddy diffusion coefficients in the Venus general circulation model and chemical and aerosol transport models.
