Venus's southern polar vortex reveals precessing circulation.

Venus's southern polar vortex reveals precessing circulation.

Initial images of Venus's south pole by the Venus Express mission have shown the presence of a bright, highly variable vortex, similar to that at the planet's north pole. Using high-resolution infrared measurements of polar winds from the Venus Express Visible and Infrared Thermal Imaging...
