摘要: Abstract We have computed radiative relaxation times for temperature perturbations in CO 2 with small admixtures of water vapor under conditions which are similar to those occurring the martian atmosphere. Certain aspects influence transfer on dynamical phenomena atmosphere discussed terms these times. It is found that: (i) diurnal changes profile will extend considerably greater heights than case Earth; wave propagate more by turbulent diffusion; (ii) a non-negligible wind system exists Mars; (iii) non-linear interactions between motion field and initial state equilibrium much smaller Mars (iv) de-stabilization regions negative lapse rate may be important upper
