Scientific paper

The high-resolution records obtained from mm-wave observations of the Mars J = 1-0 C-12O line and the radiodetection of C-13O in September-October 1986 and January 1987 have demonstrated mm-wave observations' utility in the study of planetary atmospheres. The results obtained allow the derivation of the Martian thermal profile at the time of dust-storms, and well as the monitoring of possible short-term changes in CO abundance. It is concluded that the observed C-12O/C-13O ratio is terrestrial, and that strong indications emerge of temporal variations in the thermal profile and CO abundance of Mars.
