Thermospheric density responses to Martian dust storm in autumn based on MAVEN data
The unique seasonal surface dust storms on Mars have a significant impact on the Martian atmosphere. However, due to the lack of observations, semi-empirical models are difficult to simulate the density changes in the thermosphere with the existence of ...

Interannual similarity in the Martian atmosphere during the dust storm season
We find that during the dusty season on Mars (southern spring and summer) of years without a global dust storm there are three large regional‐scale dust storms. The storms are labeled A, B, and C in seasonal order.

Identification of dust storm origin in South –West of Iran
BackgroundDeserts are the main sources of emitted dust, and are highly responsive to wind erosion. Low content of soil moisture and lack of vegetation cover lead to fine particle’s release.

China's first Mars sampling return mission (Tianwen‐3) is designed to launch and retrieve samples around 2030. Three tentative landing areas (TLAs) (Amazonis, Chryse and Utopia Planitiae, i.e., TLA‐A, TLA‐C and TLA‐U) are selected based on elevation

Impacting the dayside Martian ionosphere from above and below: Effects of the impact of CIRs and ICMEs close to aphelion (April 2021) and during dust storms (June-July 2022) seen with MAVEN ROSE [PDF]
We use 62 electron density profiles collected by the Radio Occultation Science Experiment (ROSE), on MAVEN, when Mars was hit by CIRs and ICMEs close to aphelion (April 2021) and during two dust storms (June-July 2022) to examine the response of the Martian ionosphere to solar events and to solar events hitting during dust storms.

Effects of Martian Dust Storms on Ionospheric Peak Altitudes
The effects of Martian dust storms on the atmosphere and ionosphere is one of the hot topics in Mars research. This paper reports on the effects of a local dust storm on the ionospheric peak altitude based on electron density profile observations from ...

Performance of a crystalline silicon photovoltaic power plant during sandstorms [PDF]
Solar photovoltaic power generation has achieved grid parity in a number of countries during the last decade. This revolution has begun in countries where the solar radiation intensity is not very high. Solar resource maps created by a number of agencies worldwide indicate that areas of high intensity of solar radiation suitable solar for power ...
