Effects of Charged Martian Dust on Martian Atmosphere Remote Sensing
Remote Sensing, 2022 In this paper, the extinction property and optical depth of charged Martian dust at infrared band 3 THz–300 THz are studied using the Mie scattering theory.

Meteoric Metal Chemistry in the Martian Atmosphere. [PDF]
J Geophys Res Planets, 2018 AbstractRecent measurements by the Imaging Ultraviolet Spectrograph (IUVS) instrument on NASA's Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN mission show that a persistent layer of Mg+ ions occurs around 90 km in the Martian atmosphere but that neutral Mg atoms are not detectable.

THE MARTIAN ATMOSPHERIC BOUNDARY LAYER [PDF]
Reviews of Geophysics, 2011 The planetary boundary layer (PBL) represents the part of the atmosphere that is strongly influenced by the presence of the underlying surface and mediates the key interactions between the atmosphere and the surface. On Mars, this represents the lowest 10 km of the atmosphere during the daytime.

Stability of the Martian Atmosphere [PDF]
Science, 1972 A detailed chemical dynamic model is presented for a moist martian atmosphere. Recombination of carbon dioxide is catalyzed by trace amounts of water. The abundances of carbon monoxide and molecular oxygen should vary in response to changes in atmospheric water and atmospheric mixing.

Clouds in the Martian Atmosphere [PDF]
, 2018 Although resembling an extremely dry desert, planet Mars hosts clouds in its atmosphere. Every day somewhere on the planet a part of the tiny amount of water vapor held by the atmosphere can condense as ice crystals to form mainly cirrus-type clouds. The existence of water ice clouds has been known for a long time and they have been studied for decades,

Impact sculpting of the early martian atmosphere. [PDF]
Sci AdvIntense bombardment of solar system planets in the immediate aftermath of protoplanetary disk dissipation has played a key role in their atmospheric evolution. During this epoch, energetic collisions will have removed substantial masses of gas from rocky planet atmospheres.

Mie scattering and the Martian atmosphere [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1971 It has been suggested that the discrepancy between radio occultation determinations of the Martian atmospheric surface pressure (3.8 to 7 mb) and those deduced from optical polarization measurements and a simple Rayleigh atmosphere model (about 10 mb) are the results of sub-micron sized aerosols in the Martian atmosphere.

Alternate oscillations of Martian hydrogen and oxygen upper atmospheres during a major dust storm
Nature Communications, 2022 Dust storms on Mars drive water escape to space. Here, the authors show the impact Martian dust storms have on the abundance of atmospheric hydrogen and oxygen, and how this helps to overall oxidize the Martian atmosphere.

Simulation of Transient Topside Layer in the Martian Ionosphere
Remote Sensing, 2023 Many Mars missions, e.g., Mariner, Viking, Mars Global Surveyor (MGS), Mars Express (MEX), and Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN), have been launched to study the Martian atmosphere.

Anaerobic Photosynthesizers and their Potential to Create a Biosphere on the Surface of the Red Planet [PDF]
فناوری در مهندسی هوافضا, 2023 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 ...
