Fig. 9From: 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 spectroscopyMean retrieval errors in the a temperature and b wind velocity profiles. Color lines show the errors in the retrieval from the model spectra in the cold case (blue), VIRAex case (green), and warm case (red), with 41 wind velocity profiles and white noise with the RMS of 1.0 erg/s/cm2/sr/cm-1Back to article page
