Influence of the cloud-level neutral layer on the vertical propagation of topographically generated gravity waves on Venus
Abstract The reason for stationary gravity waves at Venus’ cloud top to appear mostly at low latitudes in the afternoon is not understood. Since a neutral layer exists in the lower part of the cloud layer, the waves should be affected by the neutral layer before reaching the cloud top. To what exten...
