Exploring the Atmosphere of Mars with Remote Observations: Activities in Japan for the Belgium-Japan partnership (AMAVERO)
Abstract
From April 2017 to March 2019, Japan-Belgium collaboration program, AMAVERO (Exploring the Atmosphere of MArs and VEnus with Remote Observations: A Belgium-Japan partnership) is running. In this project, we study the following aspects. (1) 3D distributions (i.e., spatial variation + vertical profiles) of temperature, wind, and trace gases on Mars, and (2) those at the middle atmosphere (from the cloud top to the upper atmosphere, 60-140 km) of Venus. In this meeting, we show the progress and the activities on-going in this project related to Mars Express and ExoMars with MAVEN.
