A global view of gravity waves in the Martian atmosphere inferred from a high-resolution general circulation model
Takeshi Kuroda, Alexander S. Medvedev, Erdal Yiğit +1
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 fi…
High-altitude gravity waves in the Martian thermosphere observed by MAVEN/NGIMS and modeled by a gravity wave scheme
Erdal Yiğit, Scott L. England, Guiping Liu +4
First high-altitude observations of gravity wave (GW)-induced CO density perturbations in the Martian thermosphere retrieved from NASA's NGIMS instrument on board the MAVEN sat…
Gravity waves and high-altitude CO ice cloud formation in the Martian atmosphere
Erdal Yiğit, Alexander S. Medvedev, Paul Hartogh
We present the first general circulation model simulations that quantify and reproduce patches of extremely cold air required for CO condensation and cloud formation in the Mar…
Cooling of the Martian thermosphere by CO radiation and gravity waves: An intercomparison study with two general circulation models
Alexander S. Medvedev, Francisco González-Galindo, Erdal Yiğit +3
Observations show that the lower thermosphere of Mars (100--140 km) is up to 40 K colder than the current general circulation models (GCMs) can reproduce. Possible candidates…
The EChO science case
Giovanna Tinetti, Pierre Drossart, Paul Eccleston +347
The discovery of almost 2000 exoplanets has revealed an unexpectedly diverse planet population. Observations to date have shown that our Solar System is certainly not representativ…
