Martian Proton Aurora Brightening Reveals Atmospheric Ion Loss Intensifying
The Martian proton aurora is a distinct aurora phenomenon resulting from the direct deposition of solar wind energy into Mars' dayside atmosphere. What solar wind parameters influence the aurora activity in the short term is yet unknown, as are the ...

Influence of gravity waves on the climatology of high-altitude Martian carbon dioxide ice clouds [PDF]
Carbon dioxide (CO2) ice clouds have been routinely observed in the middle atmosphere of Mars. However, there are still uncertainties concerning physical mechanisms that control their altitude, geographical, and seasonal distributions.

A global view of gravity waves in the Martian atmosphere inferred from a high‐resolution general circulation model [PDF]
Global characteristics of the small‐scale gravity wave (GW) field in the Martian atmosphere obtained from a high‐resolution general circulation model (GCM) are presented for the first time.

Gravity waves and high‐altitude CO2 ice cloud formation in the Martian atmosphere [PDF]
We present the first general circulation model simulations that quantify and reproduce patches of extremely cold air required for CO2 condensation and cloud formation in the Martian mesosphere.

Cloud trains associated with Martian Mountain Lee Waves on the eastern side of the Phlegra Montes
Mountain lee waves have often been observed on the eastern side of the Phlegra Montes as wave trains visualized by water ice clouds in the Martian atmosphere. The seasonality and formation condition of these lee waves and associated cloud trains have not

Distribution of Dune Landform on Mars
Dune landforms are widely distributed on Mars and contain abundant information about the Martian atmosphere and sedimentary environment. At present, the understanding of Martian dunes and their environmental significance still needs to be further ...

A mesoscale model for the Martian atmosphere [PDF]
The Pennsylvania State University/National Center for Atmosphere Research Mesoscale Model Version 5 (MM5) has been converted for use on Mars. Modifications are based on schemes implemented in the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory Mars General Circulation Model (GCM).
