Scientific paper

The Mars Exploration Rover optical depth record [4] now spans >3 Mars years at each of two sites. The record provides ground truth for orbital remote sensing, context for rover-based observations and for rover operations, and a measurement of a key component in atmospheric dynamics. Dust devil activity in Gusev is seen to be controlled by surface insolation, which is controlled by seasonal effects and dust opacity.
