Thermal Variability in the Martian Upper Atmosphere within the Crustal Magnetic Field Region Induced by Gravity Wave Dissipation Due to Ion-drag Effect

Thermal Variability in the Martian Upper Atmosphere within the Crustal Magnetic Field Region Induced by Gravity Wave Dissipation Due to Ion-drag Effect

Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution detected a significant temperature increase of approximately 20–40 K in the upper atmosphere within the strong crustal magnetic field (CF) region during two deep dip campaigns. Previous studies were unable to fully explain this thermal variation. Atmospheric gr...
