Total tidal response of the atmosphere of Venus to the solar semidiurnal perturbation caused by the quadrupolar academic forcings and with U₂ = −2.349 m² s^-2 and J₂ = 1.0 × 10^-4 m² s^-3. Left, from top to bottom: real parts of δp, δρ, δT, V_θ, and V_ϕ taken at the ground as functions of the reduced longitude ϕ/π (horizontal axis) and latitude δ/π (vertical axis). The colour function c is given by c = ℜ{δf} for any quantity δf. Right, from top to bottom: imaginary parts of the same quantities as functions of the reduced longitude and latitude. In these plots, c = ℑ{δf}.
