Recent spacecraft observations of the Martian atmosphere show that the current climate has
a distinct and generally repeatable pattern of seasonal and spatial variations. The half of the …

Abstract The Mars Regional Atmospheric Modeling System (MRAMS) and a nested
simulation of the Mars Weather Research and Forecasting model (MarsWRF) are used to …

We describe a set of two “new generation” general circulation models of the Martian
atmosphere derived from the models we originally developed in the early 1990s. The two …

The Compact Reconnaissance Imaging Spectrometer for Mars (CRISM) is a hyperspectral
imager on the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) spacecraft. CRISM consists of three …

During the period October 1997 to September 1999 we obtained and analyzed over 100
millimeter‐wave observations of Mars atmospheric CO line absorption for atmospheric …

Determining the mineralogy of Mars is an essential part of revealing the conditions of the
surface and subsurface. A deconvolution method was used to remove atmospheric …

Thermal inertia derivation techniques generally assume that surface properties are uniform
at horizontal scales below the footprint of the observing instrument and to depths of several …

Thermal inertia values at 100 m per pixel are determined using nighttime temperature data
from the Thermal Emission Imaging System (THEMIS) on the Mars Odyssey spacecraft …

The Imager for Mars Pathfinder (IMP) returned sequences of images of the Martian sky
characterizing the size distribution, optical constants, and nature of the aerosols suspended …

Emission phase function (EPF) observations taken in 1999–2001 by Mars Global Surveyor
Thermal Emission Spectrometer (MGS TES) support the broadest study of Martian aerosol …
