Venus' upper atmosphere revealed by a GCM: I. Structure and variability of the circulation

Thomas Navarro et al.

Summary: A numerical simulation of Venus' upper atmosphere reveals detailed atmospheric circulation and the impact of a Kelvin wave, as well as how nightside oxygen nightglow and dayside oxygen dayglow are influenced by atmospheric dynamics. Despite nitrogen chemistry not being included, simulated wind structures may explain the observed NO nightglow shift.

Venus upper atmosphere revealed by a GCM: II. Model validation with temperature and density measurements

Gabriella Gilli et al.

Summary: An improved version of the Venus General Circulation Model with high resolution and non-orographic gravity waves parameterization is validated using data from Venus Express and ground-based telescopes, showing better agreement with temperature observations above 90 km. Systematic biases in temperature structure are found at certain levels, suggesting the importance of accurate parameterizations in modeling the Venusian upper atmosphere. Dynamics of CO and O tracers are analyzed in a region with limited wind measurements, revealing high variability over daily to weekly timescales.
