Wavenumber spectra of the martian atmosphere covering zonal wavenumbers s = 1-6 were obtained as a function of latitude and season for the first time from the temperatures measured by the Thermal Emission Spectrometer onboard the Mars Global Surveyor. The stationary component tends to peak at s = 2,
