PUBLICATIONS & CONFERENCE PRESENTATIONS
The principal outputs from the Venus Clouds team are intended to be two publications:
– a chapter entitled “Clouds and Hazes” as part of a “Venus III” book.
– a clouds observation intercomaprison paper, progressing towards a reference cloud model for Venus intended to be part of an updated Venus International Reference Atmosphere.
As of early 2015, these are both in preparation, to be submitted for publication in 2015.
