Water mixing ratios versus altitude for each of our three profile assumptions (left) and the temperature versus altitude profile (right). The surface mixing ratio of water is fixed, spanning concentrations from 10−7 to 1 bar. The water profile above the surface is modeled to be constant with height (top panel), an Earth-like profile (middle panel), or from only diffusion and photochemical production (bottom panel).
