Venus atmospheric profiles - From SPICAV-SOIR on board VEx version w23.00

Vertical profiles of density of CO2, CO, H2O, HDO, HF, H35Cl, H37Cl, SO2 and aerosols in the Venus upper atmosphere at the terminator. Data retrieved from calibrated spectra obtained with the SPICAV-SOIR instrument on board the Venus Express spacecraft.

The retrieval method and the derived data is presented and analysed in several papers. See:
* https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pss.2015.02.002 for CO2 density and temperature,
* https://doi.org/10.1016/j.asr.2015.08.012 for a summary,
* https://doi.org/10.1016/j.icarus.2016.02.025 for CO or Wilquet et al. (2012)
* https://doi.org/10.1016/j.icarus.2011.11.002 for the aerosols.
