A review is conducted of the Martian atmosphere, with a view to
the deposition of solar energy at the surface. Attention is given
to the abundance, distribution, properties, and variability of the
optically active gases, dust particles, and water ice clouds. An
effort is also made to ascertain the effect of the atmosphere on
the transmission of sunlight to the Martian surface, as well as
how transmission varies with season, latitude, and time of day.
