解説(安達)/ Comment by Makoto Adachi
Clyde Foster氏の画像では、Olympia Monsから北西方向に雲の広がっている様子が記録され、南東風の存在が分かる。北極地方にも
雲の広がりがあるようだ。また、この付近での氷晶雲は見えにくくなっている。一方、Paul Maxson氏の画像では氷晶雲が顕著で、
Syrtis Majorが青っぽく記録され、地域によって氷晶雲の広がり方に偏りがあることが分かる。
北極は黄色く記録され、Clyde Foster氏の画像と合わせて判断すると、北極の西経0度付近を中心とする部分はダストのベールに
覆われているようだ。
In the image of Mr. Clyde Foster, the appearance of cloud spreading in the northwest direction from Olympia Mons is recorded,
and the existence of southeast wind is known. There seems to be cloud spreading also in the Arctic region. Also, the ice cloud near here is
hard to see. On the other hand, in the image of Mr. Paul Maxson, the water ice cloud is remarkable, the Syrtis Major is recorded in blue,
which shows that there are biases towards the spreading of the water ice cloud depending on the region.
The Arctic is recorded in yellow, Judging from the image of Mr. Clyde Foster, it seems that the part around the 0 degree west longitude
of the Arctic is covered with a veil of dust.
