Modeling the variations of Dose Rate measured by RAD during the first MSL Martian year: 2012-2014 [PDF]

, 2015
The Radiation Assessment Detector (RAD), on board Mars Science Laboratory's (MSL) rover Curiosity, measures the {energy spectra} of both energetic charged and neutral particles along with the radiation dose rate at the surface of Mars.

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,

Characterization of dust activity on Mars from MY27 to MY32 by PFS-MEX observations [PDF]

, 2018
We present spatial and temporal distributions of dust on Mars from Ls = 331 in MY26 until Ls = 80 in MY33 retrieved from the measurements taken by the Planetary Fourier Spectrometer (PFS) aboard Mars Express.

Argon in the Martian atmosphere

Geophysical Research Letters, 1974
Heretofore undetected argon may be a significant constituent of the Martian atmosphere with a partial pressure of 1.8 mbar. The addition of argon to the 5.5±0.8 mbar of CO2, deduced from ground‐based spectroscopy, is consistent with the values of total pressure deduced from the Mariner radio occulation measurements. The presence of argon in the Martian

Martian atmospheric O₃ retrieval development for the NOMAD-UVIS spectrometer [PDF]

, 2017
The composition of atmospheric trace gases and aerosols is a highly variable and poorly constrained component of the martian atmosphere, and by affecting martian climate and UV surface dose, represents a key parameter in the assessment of suitability for

A new model describing Forbush Decreases at Mars: combining the heliospheric modulation and the atmospheric influence

Earth and Planetary Physics, 2020
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).
