Description

These files contain MSL REMS temperature variances in an array of solar longitude by local time. The solar longitude is in the Mars Year format, (MY - 24)*360. Phoenix and Pathfinder variances are in an array of solar longitude by local time. The solar longitude format is normal.

Steps to reproduce

Variance is calculated as the sum of square differences between air temperature in each extended block of each sol and a convolved temperature profile with a running mean window size of 720s over the entire sol. Five minute blocks are used to calculate the running mean but excluded from the variance.
