Observability of atmospheric spatial variability by the VeSUV/VenSpec-U instrument onboard ESA’s EnVision mission
Abstract
UV investigations of Venus have revealed interesting features regarding the chemical composition and the complex dynamical processes taking place in the atmosphere. The abundance and variability of sulphured gases like SO 2 and SO, as well as the unidentified "UV absorber" have been monitored, and patterns linked to the dynamical activity such as convection cells and atmospheric waves have been observed at both planetary and smaller spatial scales.
