Abstract New observational data obtained from Venera-11 through Venera-14 and Pioneer-Venus data (1979–1982) call for searching for the interdependences of the phenomena occurring on this planet. It is proposed that the presence of electrical discharges in the near-surface layers of the atmosphere, the variable density of the above-cloud submicron haze, and the peculiarities of the cloud microphysics can be tied by a hypothesis that volcanic eruptions occur on Venus.
