The altitude distribution of the hot oxygen density was calculated for the upper atmospheres of Venus and Mars for solar cycle maximum and minimum conditions, respectively. The calculated values for Venus are in good agreement with the observed values and are about a factor of twenty larger than the calculated values for Mars at the exobase.
