| Abstract: | A 3.4-cm wavelength radiometer aboard the Mars 2 and 3 orbiters observed the brightness temperature due to planetary thermal emission in two orthogonal polarizations as a function of position on Mars. Preliminary results for two orbits of Mars 3 show a correlation between subsurface temperature and dielectric constant, interpreted as an effect of porosity. |
