Impact of gravity waves on the middle atmosphere of Mars: a non-orographic gravity wave parameterization based on Global Climate modeling and MCS observations
G. Gilli, F. Forget, A. Spiga +7
The impact of gravity waves (GW) on diurnal tides and the global circulation in the middle/upper atmosphere of Mars is investigated using a General Circulation Model (GCM). We have…
Global climate modeling of Saturn's atmosphere. Part IV: stratospheric equatorial oscillation
Deborah Bardet, Aymeric Spiga, Sandrine Guerlet +3
The Composite InfraRed Spectrometer (CIRS) on board Cassini revealed an equatorial oscillation of stratospheric temperature, reminiscent of the Earth's Quasi-Biennial Oscillation (…
Martian Year 34 Column Dust Climatology from Mars Climate Sounder Observations: Reconstructed Maps and Model Simulations
Luca Montabone, Aymeric Spiga, David M. Kass +3
We have reconstructed longitude-latitude maps of column dust optical depth (CDOD) for Martian year (MY) 34 (May 5, 2017 --- March 23, 2019) using observations by the Mars Climate S…
Virtual European Solar & Planetary Access (VESPA): a Planetary Science Virtual Observatory cornerstone
S. Erard, B. Cecconi, P. Le Sidaner +21
The Europlanet-2020 programme, which ended on Aug 31st, 2019, included an activity called VESPA (Virtual European Solar and Planetary Access), which focused on adapting Virtual Obs…
Martian cloud climatology and life cycle extracted from Mars Express OMEGA spectral images
André Szantai, Joachim Audouard, Francois Forget +7
We extracted a Martian water-ice cloud climatology from OMEGA data covering 7 Martian years (MY 26-32). We derived two products, the Reversed Ice Cloud Index (ICIR) and the Percent…
Study of gravity waves distribution and propagation in the thermosphere of Mars based on MGS, ODY, MRO and MAVEN density measurements
M. Vals, A. Spiga, F. Forget +3
By measuring the regular oscillations of the density of CO in the upper atmosphere (between 120 and 190~km), the mass spectrometer MAVEN/NGIMS (Atmosphere and Volatile Evolut…
