MGS RS: ATMOSPHERIC TEMPERATURE-PRESSURE PROFILES V1.0

Published by National Aeronautics and Space Administration | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Metadata Last Checked: October 19, 2025 | Last Modified: 2025-07-17

This data set contains over 21000 temperature-pressure profiles (TPS files) of the neutral atmosphere derived from Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) radio occultation data. The profiles were previously archived in the MGS-M-RSS-5-SDP-V1.0 data set along with other reduced data products from the MGS Radio Science Team (RST). Here they have been pulled from the original 38 volumes and reorganized in chronological order on a single volume. The profiles themselves have not been modified, and the labels have been edited only to conform with the requirements of the new data set. This set of profiles is accompanied by a single occultation summary file which lists key characteristics of each experiment.
