Enhanced Super-rotation Before and During the 2018 Martian Global Dust Storm
dataset

dataset contains information on the atmospheric fields of Mars, as
generated by an assimilation of data from a Mars Global Circulation
Model (MGCM) and observational data from two satellite instruments. The
data has been used to study super-rotation in the martian atmosphere
during the 2018 Global Dust Storm.
The
MGCM is the Mars atmospheric model used at the Open University, and the
observational data are from: (a) the Mars Climate Sounder (MCS)
instrument aboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (for Mars Years 33 and
34), and (b) the Atmospheric Chemistry Suite (ACS) aboard the ExoMars
Trace Gas Orbiter (for Mars Year 34 only). Assimilation output data is
provided over solar longitudes Ls = 150–240 for both years.
