Wind, temperature, pressure and magnetometer data is used to understand the local wind behavior at the landing site to help understand and interpret SEIS data. At the same time, the lander uses its cameras to document
281:. With this data, scientists are able to gain even greater insights into Mars' weather and climate, supplementing what was collected by previous missions, and what is currently being gathered by the 227:, with enhanced performances in terms of dynamic range and resolution. TWINS provides continuous wind and air temperature measurements to help understand the seismic data from the SEIS instrument. 530: 257:(UCLA) to measure the direction and magnitude of magnetic fields such as those caused by the Martian ionosphere; and a highly sensitive pressure sensor ( 504: 61: 400:
