Abstract
An engineering model atmosphere for Mars has been developed with many of the same features and capabilities of the highly successful Global Reference Atmospheric Model (GRAM) program for Earth's atmosphere, including mean values for density, temperature, pressure, and wind components, and density perturbation magnitudes and random perturbation profiles for density variations along specified trajectories. This paper outlines the observational and modeling basis behind the development of the Mars-GRAM program, provides a general description of the operations of the Mars-GRAM program (available in FORTRAN-77 on IBM-PC compatible 360k diskettes), and presents some example applications for the Mars-GRAM model.
