Scientific paper

We have created a new Mars GCM that extends from about 14 km above the planetary surface to altitudes of about 300km, thus coupling the lower and upper atmospheres. The model includes Mars-appropriate dynamics, chemistry, and energetics. Some preliminary results for a dust-free tide-free atmosphere are presented, showing temperature and composition profiles, electron density distributions, and global wind patterns for late 2003 to early 2004. The simulations are validated against measurements of neutral density, temperature, and electron density.
