The purpose of this paper is to give an updated report on several recent findings concerning Mars obtained from studies now in progress at the Planetary Research Center of Lowell Observatory. In this work, extensive use has been made of ground-based images obtained almost hourly by seven observatories cooperating under the International Planetary Patrol Program (Baum, 1973).
