Scientific paper

From a misinterpretation of Mariner 10 pictures, Chamberlain (1974) constructed a model in which he used horizontal variations in the Venus atmosphere to explain the phase-variation of CO2 absorption at small phase angles. Published observations of spatial variations in CO2 absorption on Venus show that they are too small to explain the phase effect. The question of uniqueness that is, if more than one model can explain the phase-effect observations is discussed. Before this question can be answered, a realistic model that does account for the data must be constructed. No such calculations exist.
