Atmosphere of Venus water and subsequent rise of the levels of other greenhouse gases. Despite the harsh conditions on the surface, the atmospheric pressure and temperature at about 50 km to 65 km above the surface of the planet is nearly the same as that of the Earth, making its upper atmosphere the most Earth-like area in the Solar System, even more so than the surface of Mars. Due to the similarity in pressure and temperature and the fact that breathable air (21% oxygen, 78% nitrogen) is a lifting gas on Venus in the same way that helium is a lifting gas on
Modified atmosphere demand. Atmosphere within the package can be modified passively or actively. In passive modified atmosphere packaging (MAP), the high concentration of CO and low O levels in the package is achieved over time as a result of respiration of the product and gas transmission rates of the packaging film. This method is commonly used for fresh respiring fruits and vegetables. Reducing O and increasing CO slows down respiration rate, conserves stored energy, and therefore extended shelf life. On the other hand, active MA involves the use of active systems such as O and CO scavengers or emitters, moisture absorbers, ethylene
