Neutral heating rate and ion/electron heating rate driven by AW and GW wave modes and are displayed in panels a-b and panels c-d, respectively, Hpc and Hwave are wave-associated photochemical heating of hot oxygen atom and total neutral wave heating rate, respectively. Q = Hwave/ρn0cp represents the wave heating/cooling rate in unit of K sol−1, where “sol” denotes one Martian day. Hni refers to neutral-ion collisional heating rate while Hne represents neutral–electron collisional heating rate. Hin and Hen are ion-neutral and electron-neutral collisional heating rate, respectively. Hjoule denotes Joule heating rate generated by perturbed current density and electric field. Input parameters are τ = 4.2 min, λh = 80 km, km−1, and cp = 321 m s−1 for AW mode and are τ = 39.4 min, λh = 210 km,
km−1, and cp = 89 m s−1 for GW mode.
