Pioneer Venus atmospheric observations

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1981
Some selected results from the scientific experiments on the recent Pioneer missions to Venus are reviewed, with particular emphasis on data from the infrared remote sensing experiment on the orbiter. Various aspects of the structure, dynamics and energy budget of the atmosphere, as revealed by the measurements, are presented for discussion.
