A mesoscale model for the Martian atmosphere
[1] The Pennsylvania State University/National Center for Atmosphere Research Mesoscale Model Version 5 (MM5) has been converted for use on Mars. Modifications are based on schemes implemented in the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory Mars General Circulation Model (GCM). Validation of the Mars MM5 is conducted by comparison to the Mars GCM, examining the large-scale dynamics in the two mode...
متن کاملA Climate Database for the Martian Atmosphere
A new engineering model of the environment of Mars is outlined. The model is based on a database of statistics computed from a state-of-the-art Global Circulation Model of the martian atmosphere which represents our best knowledge of the atmosphere to date. A novel scheme for the representation of large scale variability in the engineering model, in terms of an optimal set of basis functions de...
متن کاملStudy of the Martian Upper Atmosphere using Radio Tracking Data
Since the first in situ observations of the Martian atmosphere were made by the twin Viking landers, we have learned considerably more about its composition, dynamics and variability. Not only did the new data on global atmospheric densities generate opportunities to understand the atmospheric composition of early Mars and supply constraints at the upper limit of General Circulation Models, it ...
متن کاملThe Loss of the Martian Atmosphere
It is widely accepted that Mars had an atmosphere at least 4 Gyr ago. The processes that led to the loss of the Martian atmosphere are still debated. Solar-wind-induced sputtering, impact erosion, weathering, sequestration into the regolith and polar caps, and photodissociative reactions are the mechanisms believed to be responsible for removing the atmosphere. No one process has been shown to ...
متن کاملRadiative Transfer Modeling of the Martian Atmosphere
Introduction: Studies of the past and current climate and weather on Mars depend on accurate calculations of the radiative properties of the Martian atmosphere. Atmospheric and Environmental Research, Inc. (AER) is the source of the state-of-the-science radia-tive transfer codes for terrestrial applications [1] and these models are continuously updated and validated [2]. Recently, they have bee...
