Scientific paper

The combination of spatial and spectral resolution provided by the HST is ideally suited to a synoptic study of seasonal and interannual variability on Mars. We propose a three year program of Mars observations which will enable us to address the following objectives: multispectral mapping of geological surface units, quantitative study of seasonal and interannual variations in albedo features, the diurnal behavior of martian clouds, observation of a classic dust storm season, measurements of the atmospheric concentration of ozone and the derived water vapor abundance, and observations of seasonal polar cap changes for comparison with earlier data sets. Thirteen sequences of observations are proposed to map the martian globe and to provide repeated observations of the regions of greatest scientific interest; these use the PC to observe Mars in visible and near UV wavelengths and the FOS to map ozone absorption. The sequences are designed for particular martian seasonal dates relevant to the scientific objectives.
