摘要：
Backscattering data for the nephelometer experiments conducted aboard the Pioneer Venus mission probes, including data up to the highest altitudes measured by the probes, are presented. A few small signals were detected below the main cloud deck. Ambient radiation was measured at near-ultraviolet and visible wavelengths; the variation of extinction of near-ultraviolet with altitude is-inferred. . Ambient radiance decreased more rapidly at 530 than at 745 nanometers in the lower atmosphere. Copyright © 1979 AAAS.
