Impact inducted surface heating by planetesimals on early Mars

open access: yes, 2014
We investigate the influence of impacts of large planetesimals and small planetary embryos on the early Martian surface on the hydrodynamic escape of an early steam atmosphere that is exposed to the high soft X-ray and EUV flux of the young Sun.

Oxygen Isotope Variations of Basaltic Lavas and Upper Mantle Rocks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
This chapter summarizes the oxygen isotope geochemistry of terrestrial basalts and their mantle sources, including the conceptual framework for interpreting such data and the phenomenology of known variations.

Apatite Textures, Elemental and Isotopic Compositions Unmask the Homogenizing Process in Silicic Magma Chambers

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Silicic magmas are the most viscous of all magmas, however some granitic plutons display remarkably homogeneous compositions, which contradicts the hypothesis that mechanical mixing is the main homogenizing process in the magma chamber. Thus much remains

Proceedings of the MEVTV Workshop on The Evolution of Magma Bodies on Mars [PDF]

open access: yes
The workshop focused on many of the diverse approaches related to the evolution of magma bodies on Mars that have been pursued during the course of the Mars Evolution of Volcanism, Tectonism, and Volatiles (MEVTV) Program.
