Thermal tides in an assimilation of three years of Thermal Emission Spectromenter data from Mars Global Surveyor [PDF]
Introduction. Thermal tides are particularly prominent in the Mars atmosphere with the result that temperature and wind fields have a strong dependence on local solar time (LT).

Methane on Mars: Thermodynamic Equilibrium and Photochemical Calculations [PDF]
The detection of methane (CH4) in the atmosphere of Mars by Mars Express and Earth-based spectroscopy is very surprising, very puzzling, and very intriguing. On Earth, about 90% of atmospheric ozone is produced by living systems.

An estimation of the mass dragged by the solar wind from Mars’s atmosphere in its geologic history [PDF]
In the past Mars had a denser atmosphere, but it lacks a magnetic field to protect the ionosphere and exosphere from the solar wind. A model for describing the loss of atmosphere in geologic time is presented.
