Global vertical distribution of water vapor on Mars retrieved from 3.5 years of TGO/NOMAD science operations, presented in Aoki et al., 2022

This is the dataset of water vapor vertical distributions on Mars measured by ExoMars-TGO/NOMAD.
This is presented in "Global vertical distribution of water vapor on Mars: Results from 3.5 years of ExoMars-TGO/NOMAD science operations" by S. Aoki, A.C. Vandaele, F. Daerden et al. https://doi.org/10.1029/2022JE007231

Each file name indicates the year, month, date, and time of the measurement, and diffraction order.

Each file contains 9 columns:

  • 1st Column: Altitude above areoid [km]
  • 2nd Column: Water vapor volume mixing ratio [ppm]
  • 3rd Column: Error in water vapor mixing ratio [ppm]
  • 4th Column: Water vapor number density [1/cm3]
  • 5th Column: Error in water vapor number density [1/cm3]
  • 6th Column: Solar Longitude [degree]
  • 7th Column: Latitude [degree]
  • 8th Column: Longitude [degree]
  • 9th Column: Local time [hrs]
