  • Tracer transport in the Martian atmosphere as simulated by a Mars GCM

    Creator:
    Walsh, Thomas D.
    Abstract:
    This paper investigates the atmospheric circulation and transport characteristics of the Martian atmosphere (as modeled by a Mars GCM) for three sets of conditions. The conditions are based on a combination of season and dust loading (as parameterized by the optical depth, τ). The first experiment is for the Northern...

  • Baroclinic eddies in the Martian atmosphere : a general circulation model study

    Creator:
    Matheson, Mark
    Abstract:
    A variety of general circulation model experiments are performed to investigate the influence of seasonality and topography on the strength of baroclinic eddies in the Martian atmosphere. Three different models are used: a full physics model, a simplified physics model, and a zonally symmetric simplified physics model. All three models...
