A Long-lived Sharp Disruption on the Lower Clouds of Venus
J. Peralta, T. Navarro, C. W. Vun +19
Planetary-scale waves are thought to play a role in powering the yet-unexplained atmospheric superrotation of Venus. Puzzlingly, while Kelvin, Rossby and stationary waves manifest…
Planetary-scale variations in winds and UV brightness at the Venusian cloud top: Periodicity and temporal evolution
Masataka Imai, Toru Kouyama, Yukihiro Takahashi +9
Planetary-scale waves at the Venusian cloud-top cause periodic variations in both winds and ultraviolet (UV) brightness. While the wave candidates are the 4-day Kelvin wave and 5-d…
Return to Venus of the Japanese Venus Climate Orbiter AKATSUKI
Masato Nakamura, Yasuhiro Kawakatsu, Chikako Hirose +19
Japanese Venus Climate Orbiter/AKATSUKI was proposed in 2001 with strong support by international Venus science community and approved as an ISAS (The Institute of Space and Astron…
Equatorial jet in the lower to middle cloud layer of Venus revealed by Akatsuki
T. Horinouchi, S. Murakami, T. Satoh +15
The Venusian atmosphere is in a state of superrotation where prevailing westward winds move much faster than the planet's rotation. Venus is covered with thick clouds that extend f…
