The convective boundary layer on Mars: Some 1-D simulation results

► The convective boundary layer (CBL) of Mars is simulated with a 1-D model. ► The model results compare well with the Spirit mini-TES temperature profiles. ► The sensible and latent heat fluxes H, LE indicate entrainment in the morning hours. ► The curving shape of H in the lower CBL can be obtained as a residual.
