Venus Planetary Climate Model output: age of air from below cloud decks

Download (1.75 GB)

Model output from a simulation of the Venus Planetary Climate Model, developed and maintained by the Laboratoire de Meteorologie Dynamique of the Institut Pierre Simon Laplace.

The output includes wind, temperature, pressure, and geopotential data, along with an 'age of air' cube which represents the time since a passive atmospheric tracer was last in a specified source region.

In this dataset, the source region is the level below the lowest cloud deck (but above the stagnant lower haze layer). The dataset contains 1 Venus day worth of data, with 100 outputs per Venus day.
