Introduction:
Variations In Hydrogen Escape At Different Seasons That Could Be Attributed To Water Vapor Variations In The Middle Atmosphere As Stated By Chaffin
Et Al. (2017) [1]. Water Vapor Is Also Seen To Increase
By An Order Of Magnitude In The Middle Atmosphere
Due To Dust Storms [2]. This In Turn Results In An Increase In Hydrogen Escape Due To Dust Storms As Observed By Mars Climate Sounder Data [3]. The Proper Understanding Of How Dust Storms Affect The Rise Of
Water Vapor In Altitude That In Turn Enhances Hydrogen Escape Is Studied.
Motivated By The Emirates Mars Mission’S Objective Of Correlating The Escape Rates Between The
Upper And Lower Atmosphere Of Mars, This Paper Aims
To Provide Theoretical Expectations For The Effect Of
Dust Storms On The Escape Of Hydrogen In The Upper
