Scientific paper

The paper by Rosenqvist et al. (1992) presents evidence for the ISM experiment on Phobos and suggests that the mixing ratio of CO might vary with height, principally over the volcano Olympus Mons. Recent papers suggest that the depletion is confined to the atmosphere over the summit of Olympus and possibly other high volcanoes or that there might be an absorbing mineral whose coverage smoothly decreases at lower elevations. As a third alternative, it is argued here that the difficulty of determining the exact level of the continuum has led to a systematic error in the estimation of band depths, so that absorption is underestimated at all altitudes.
