Calibrating mars orbiter laser altimeter pulse widths at mars science laboratory candidate landing sites [PDF]
Accurate estimates of surface roughness allow quantitative comparisons between planetary terrains. These comparisons enable us to improve our understanding of commonly occurring surface processes, and develop a more complete analysis of candidate landing

First Assimilation of Atmospheric Temperatures From the Emirates Mars InfraRed Spectrometer
We assimilate atmospheric temperatures from the Emirates Mars Infrared Spectrometer on board the Emirates Mars Mission (EMM) into the Mars Planetary Climate Model at the start of EMM's early science phase (Mars Year 36 Ls = 57.34–92.90°).

Erosion rate and previous extent of interior layered deposits on Mars revealed by obstructed landslides [PDF]
We describe interior layered deposits on Mars that have obstructed landslides before undergoing retreat by as much as 2 km. These landslides differ from typical Martian examples in that their toe height increases by as much as 500 m in a distinctive ...
