Variations in intensities of CO2 bands in spectra of Mars
Abstract
The results of ground-based spectroscopic observations of Mars in the CO2 absorption bands near a wavelength of 1.6 microns in the period from 1971 to 1975 are discussed. It is shown that the variations in the intensities of the CO2 bands are connected mainly with seasonal variations of the total pressure in the Martian atmosphere.
