Supporting information associated with the paper "A Reappraisal of Subtropical Subsurface Water Ice Stability on Mars" by L. Lange et al. consists of 11 files generated as part of this work and used to generate several of the figures of this paper:


- Fig1_Fit_Vincendon2010.txt is a 271 x 2 table of floats in ASCII format containing the solar longitude (°) (first column) and the maximum latitudinal extent (°) of CO2 ice in the Southern Hemisphere on 30° pole-facing slope at a given Ls (second column) predicted by Vincendon et al. (2010).

- Fig_1_Fit_co2frost_withoutssi.txt is a 271 x 2 table of floats in ASCII format containing the solar longitude (°) (first column) and the maximum latitudinal extent (°) of CO2 ice in the Southern Hemisphere on 30° pole-facing slope at a given Ls (second column) predicted by our model, without subsurface ice.

- Fig2_CompTsurfFlux.txt is a 7909 x 5 table of floats in ASCII format containing the solar longitude (°) (first column, ranging from 0° to 360°, resolution:0.0424°), the solar flux (W/m^2) on a 30° south facing slopes at 25°S computed with the 1D model (2nd column); the surface temperature (K) on a 30° south facing slopes at 25°S computed with the 1D model (3rd column); the solar flux (W/m^2) on a 30° south facing slopes at 25°S computed with the 3D model with the sub-grid slope parameterization (4th column); the surface temperature (K) on a 30° south facing slopes at 25°S computed with the 3D model with the sub-grid slope parameterization (5th column)

- Fig2_CompTsurfFlux.txt is a 21 x 4810 table of floats in ASCII format containing:
 * First row: the altitude (km)

- Fig3_ssi_flat.txt is a 49 x 65 table of floats in ASCII format containing the ice table depth (m) beneath a flat surface derived using the current near-surface humidity (x-axis: longitude: -180° -&gt; + 180°; y-axis: latitude: -90° -&gt; + 90°). -1 is for no subsurface ice.

- Fig3_ssi_slope.txt is a 49 x 65 table of floats in ASCII format containing the ice table depth (m) beneath a 30° pole-facing slope derived using the current near-surface humidity (x-axis: longitude: -180° -&gt; + 180°; y-axis: latitude: -90° -&gt; + 90°). -1 is for no subsurface ice.
