Detection of Martian dust storms using mask regional convolutional neural networks
Martian dust plays a crucial role in the meteorology and climate of the Martian atmosphere. It heats the atmosphere, enhances the atmospheric general circulation, and affects spacecraft instruments and operations.

Microwave spectroscopy of the Mars atmosphere [PDF]
A study of the use of millimeter-wavelength spectral transitions to investigate the atmosphere of Mars is presented. In the model experiments investigated it is assumed that a spectrometer in the frequency range from 100 to 260 GHz looks into a modest-sized telescope of from 30 to 50 cm aperture from a near-Mars orbit.

Chosen problems of terraforming Mars [PDF]
: Consideration was given to creating an atmosphere on Mars that would enable people to stay on the surface of Mars without spacesuits. The source of matter for this atmosphere are bodies brought from the outer zones of the Solar System.

Forbush decreases are depressions in the galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) that are caused primarily by modulations of interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) but also occasionally by stream/corotating interaction regions (SIRs/CIRs).

Anaerobic Photosynthesizers and their Potential to Create a Biosphere on the Surface of the Red Planet [PDF]
The atmosphere of the Red Planet or Mars contains 95% of carbon dioxide, 3% of nitrogen, 1.6% of argon and only a small amount of oxygen, and in terms of concentration is about one percent of the planet's atmosphere, which makes it virtually impossible ...

Influence of Magnetic Fields on Precipitating Solar Wind Hydrogen at Mars
Solar wind protons can interact directly with the hydrogen corona of Mars through charge exchange, resulting in energetic neutral atoms (ENAs) able to penetrate deep into the upper atmosphere of Mars.

Brief communication: Lower-bound estimates for residence time of energy in the atmospheres of Venus, Mars and Titan [PDF]
The residence time of energy in a planetary atmosphere, τ, which was recently introduced and computed for the Earth's atmosphere (Osácar et al., 2020), is here extended to the atmospheres of Venus, Mars and Titan.
