Insights on Venus’Cloud Top Chemistry, Convective Activity and Topographyfrom HST

Abstract

Based on the HSTobserved LST and latitude albedo variations we conclude that topography impacts the vertical distribution of Venus’ unidentified absorber(s) through both large and small-scale mixing processes. As this (these) species have a direct impact on Venus’ radiative balance, climate and cloud super-rotation, we strongly advocate for future observations that can uniquely and contemporaneously characterize Venus’ cloud top albedo and chemistry relative to Venus’ underlying surface topography and zonal cloud motions
