Global distribution and climate sensitivity of the tropical montane forest nitrogen cycle
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.

Diurnal Variations of Water Ice in the Martian Atmosphere Observed by Mars Climate Sounder
Remote Sensing, 2022 Simulation studies have proposed a significant thermal effect of water ice clouds on the Martian atmosphere and climate. However, previous studies focused more on seasonal variations but less on short-term changes.

MAVEN Observations of the Interloop Magnetic Reconnections at Mars
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Magnetic reconnection between neighboring magnetic field loops, the so-called interloop reconnection, is a common process to drive flares in the solar atmosphere.

Deep Learning Method for Martian Atmosphere Reconstruction [PDF]
Journal of Aerospace Information Systems, 2021 The reconstruction of atmospheric properties encountered during Mars entry trajectories is a crucial element of postflight mission analysis. This paper proposes a deep learning architecture using a long short-term memory (LSTM) network for the reconstruction of Martian density and wind profiles from inertial measurements and guidance commands.

Evaluation of the Atmospheric Chemical Entropy Production of Mars
Entropy, 2015 Thermodynamic disequilibrium is a necessary situation in a system in which complex emergent structures are created and maintained. It is known that most of the chemical disequilibrium, a particular type of thermodynamic disequilibrium, in Earth’s ...

Martian Bow Shock and Magnetic Pile-Up Barrier Formation Due to the Exosphere Ion Mass-Loading [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2011 Bow shock, formed by the interaction between the solar wind and a planet, is generated in different patterns depending on the conditions of the planet.

Martian atmospheric Lee waves [PDF]
Icarus, 1976 Mariner 9 television pictures of Mars extensive mountain lee wave phenomenon in the northern mid-latitudes during winter were evaluated. The characteristic wave length of the lee waves is readily observable, and in a few cases the boundaries of the wave patterns, as well as the wave length, are observed.

Modelling the martian atmosphere [PDF]
Astronomy and Geophysics, 2003 Mars general circulation models, used to study the atmosphere of Mars, have developed almost in parallel with terrestrial weather and climate models. These models are now being confronted with a large amount of new spacecraft data, which is allowing the models to be validated more rigorously. This paper briefly reviews the current state of Mars models,

Tianwen-1 and MAVEN Observations of the Response of Mars to an Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejection
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) are solar transients that have significant effects on the upper atmosphere and ionosphere of Mars. The simultaneous spacecraft observations from Tianwen-1/MOMAG in solar wind and multiple instruments on board
