MGS RS: IONOSPHERIC ELECTRON DENSITY PROFILES V1.0

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

This data set contains 5600 ionospheric electron density profiles (EDS files) 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.
