A special interference-polarization photometer, model IV-3, on board Mars-3, was used to measure the water vapor content in the Martian atmosphere in the period 21 February to 1 March 1974. The data showed that the H2O content in some regions of Mars reaches 100 microns of precipitable water. In regions only several hundreds of kilometers apart, the H2O content of the atmosphere can differ by two to three times. The highest humidity was observed west of the broken terrain in the Araxes Region. This set of measurements was compared with earlier measurements: 1965-1968 and 1971-1972.
