Abstract
⺠Water vapor abundance at the cloud tops of Venus with high spatial resolution. ⺠At low latitudes mean water vapor abundance is stable and equal to 3 ± 1 ppm. ⺠Scatter and maximum at high latitudes may be explained by dynamic processes. ⺠Water amount contained in a gas phase always dominates that in cloud droplets. ⺠UV markings do not correlate with the cloud tops and water vapor.
