The retrieval of altitude profiles of the Martian aerosol microphysical characteristics from the limb measurements of the Mars Express OMEGA spectrometer

Bibring, J. -P.; Vasilyev, A. V.; Mayorov, B. S.

Parameterization of the spectral dependence of the optical characteristics of Martian aerosols has been proposed for processing the results of measurements of outgoing radiation. A method for retrieving the altitude profiles of the microphysical characteristics of Martian aerosols from the limb spectrometry of the OMEGA instrument of the Mars Expr…

The results of the analysis of the spectral observations of Mars carried out with the OMEGA spectrometer onboard the Mars Express spacecraft are presented. The data from one of the spectrometer’s channels working in the near-IR spectral range (0.93-2.69 µm) were analyzed. This range includes the characteristic absorption bands of both condensed wa…
