Scientific paper

Photoelectric measurements of the integrated brightness of Mars at the oppositions in 1971, 1973, and 1975 are used to show that the magnitude difference between the UV and red regions of the spectrum is sensitive to changes in Martian atmospheric transmission. This magnitude difference increases to a value of 0.6 magnitude during global dust storms. It is suggested that magnitude-difference measurements be employed as a simple and reliable method for monitoring Martian atmospheric transmission and patrolling dust storms on Mars.
