Description

Simulation with the IPSL Venus GCM. This compressed zip file accompanying the article "A long-lived sharp disruption on the lower clouds of Venus" (DOI: 10.1029/2020GL087221) holds a NetCDF file with a README file describing its structure. The NetCDF file contains the IPSL GCM simulation of the Venus atmosphere for the case of a relaxed zonal wind profile (see subsection 2.4 in main article). Computations were performed on a grid of \(altitude\times latitude\times longitude\) with \(50\times 97\times 96\) elements and along 40 time steps covering 23 Earth days.

Calculated physical parameters include:

  1. Atmospheric pressure (Pa).
  2. Vertical Wind (m s-1) [positive downward].
  3. Air Temperature (K).
  4. Zonal Wind (m s-1) [positive westward].
  5. Solar radiance at top of the atmosphere (W m-2).
