Abstract Pioneer Venus data from the first 5 years of operation show a decline by more than a factor of ten in SO2 at the cloud tops. A consistent decline has also recurred in the amount of sub-micron haze above the clouds. The correlation between these two observables is 0.8 over this period. A plausible explanation is injection of SO2 from episodic volcanism. The episodic behavior implies that steady state models of the Venus cloud chemistry and dynamics may be of limited use.
