From: Evaluation of a method to retrieve temperature and wind velocity profiles of the Venusian nightside mesosphere from mid-infrared CO2 absorption line observed by heterodyne spectroscopy

Fig. 2

Retrieved temperature profiles from the model spectrum with the temperature of VIRAex and wind velocity of 0 m/s (green line in Fig. 1). a Colored lines show the profiles retrieved with 169 a priori temperature profiles (orange: higher temperature, blue: lower temperature). Black line is the original VIRAex profile. b Temperature differences between the retrieved profiles and the original profiles. Black dashed lines show the standard deviation of the differences with 1-km steps
