Seasonal variation of daily maximum (a) dust devil activity (DDA), (b) sensible heat flux, and (c) vertical thermodynamic efficiency, predicted using 7 sols of output every 30 of Ls from domain 5 of the mesoscale MarsWRF simulation, for the Mars 2020 landing site, Midway, and NE Syrtis locations. A similar model setup and resolution, centered on the InSight landing site, was used to make the InSight predictions (e.g. Baker et al. 2020). A similar model setup and resolution, except using vertical grid B described in Newman et al. (2017) and centered on the middle of Gale crater, was used to make the MSL predictions, which are for the location of MSL at the start of its fourth year on Mars (on MSL Sol 2007 when the rover was partway up Aeolis Mons at 4.725,137.381E). The unit of sensible heat flux is Wm2
