We find that away from discrete cloud features, the observed reflectivity spectrum from 800-900 nm is very well approximated by a background cloud model that is latitudinally varying, but zonally symmetric, consisting of a H$_2$S cloud layer, based at 3. 6-4. 7 bar with variable opacity and scale height, and a stratospheric haze.

Image cubes from December 2014 in eight spectral channels, with spectral resolutions of $R\sim2000-12000$ and spatial resolutions of $2-4^\circ$ latitude, are inverted to generate 3D maps of tropospheric and stratospheric temperatures, 2D maps of upper tropospheric aerosols, phosphine and ammonia, and 2D maps of stratospheric ethane and acetylene.
