Influence of gravity waves on the climatology of high-altitude Martian carbon dioxide ice clouds [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2018
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.

Tianwen-1 and MAVEN Observations of the Response of Mars to an Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejection

open access: yesThe 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

New insights into martian atmospheric chemistry [PDF]

open access: yesIcarus, 2014
HOx radicals are produced in the martian atmosphere by the photolysis of water vapor and subsequently participate in catalytic cycles that recycle carbon dioxide (CO2) from its photolysis product carbon monoxide (CO), providing a qualitative explanation for the stability of its atmosphere.

Martian Proton Aurora Brightening Reveals Atmospheric Ion Loss Intensifying

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
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 ...

Cloud trains associated with Martian Mountain Lee Waves on the eastern side of the Phlegra Montes

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2023
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
