Abstract
⺠We determine the permittivity of the uppermost martian Basal Unit from SHARAD data. ⺠The inversion is based on subsurface to surface echo power ratio. ⺠The inversion uses data selected in terms of pulse width and two-way travel time. ⺠We obtain a permittivity distribution peaked at 5-6. ⺠Estimated dust content in the uppermost Basal Unit layer exceeds 65%.
