Data for "A Surface to Exosphere Non-orographic Gravity Wave Parameterization for the Mars Planetary Climate Model"

The dataset consists of binned MCS temperature profiles derived from the original PDS data. This dataset is utilized for comparing with PCM simulations in order to investigate the impact of non-orographic gravity waves on the thermal structures and tides in the Martian middle atmosphere. Only month 3 (Ls 30-60) and month 9 (Ls 240-270) of MY29 have been uploaded. The temperature profiles are averaged over a 5-degree range of Ls. The thermal structures represent the average temperature over day and night, while the thermal tides indicate the differences between day and night. This dataset can be accessed, modified, and visualized using Python, Fortran, or any other programming language that supports a NetCDF library.
