Scientific paper

Epsilon Geminorum occultation data obtained on April 8, 1976, with the aid of a 91-cm telescope aboard the NASA Kuiper Airborne Observatory have provided a basis for the determination of temperature, pressure, and number density profiles of the Martian atmosphere. The results concerning the temperature profiles are compared with those of Viking 1 reported by Nier et al. (1976) and with theoretical predictions of thermally driven tides in the Martian atmosphere made by Zurek (1976).
