The ISSI international study team on the martian PBL – status report and plan [PDF]
, 2008 Dynamical processes in the Martian boundary layer provide the means of communication between surface ice deposits and the free atmosphere, and the means of lifting dust from the surface.

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Carbon reservoirs on Mars: Constraints from Martian meteorites [PDF]
, 2003 We have measured the abundance and stable isotopic composition of magmatic carbon extracted from a suite of shergottites. The results confirm previous findings that primordial carbon on Mars is isotopically lighter than that of the ...

The breakup of Martian boulders
Physics Today, 2013 The rate at which boulders have disintegrated on the surface of Mars can be estimated thanks to an unusual geomorphological formation. The rate at which boulders have disintegrated on the surface of Mars can be estimated thanks to an unusual geomorphological formation.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight impacts essentially every system in the human body, resulting in multisystem deconditioning that might impair the health and performance of crewmembers, particularly on long‐duration exploration missions to Mars. In this review, we apply the sport science model of athlete monitoring, testing and training to astronauts;

Geophysical Research LettersThe Martian bow shock (BS) plays a significant role in the Martian plasma environment. Based on observations from Tianwen‐1 and MAVEN, we first report two cases of simultaneous two‐point crossings of the Martian BS affected by an interplanetary coronal ...

Development of a mineralogically replicated Martian regolith simulant informed by Martian meteorites
Cleaner MaterialsMartian regolith simulants play a critical role in scientific research, payload testing, and in situ resource utilization (ISRU) experiments. However, the absence of actual Martian soil samples limits the accuracy of current simulants in replicating the ...

Scattering matrices and expansion coefficients of Martian analogue palagonite particles
, 2008 We present measurements of ratios of elements of the scattering matrix of Martian analogue palagonite particles for scattering angles ranging from 3 to 174 degrees and a wavelength of 632.8 nm.

Dawn or Doom: The Rise and Rewards of Emerging Technologies, 2015 While long a popular place of wonder, there is now additional emphasis about spending time on Mars, if you’re a robot (Opportunity, Curiosity), a one-way ticket holder (Mars One), or an accidental resident (Mark Watney). (Statistically, it’s a good bet that Mark or one of his crew mates would have spent time in Indiana.) Whether you were fabricated in ...

Jumping on the moon as a potential exercise countermeasure
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract The Moon's gravitational field strength (17% Earth's gravity) may facilitate the use of bodyweight jumping as an exercise countermeasure against musculoskeletal and cardiovascular deconditioning in reduced gravity settings. The present study characterised the acute physiological and kinetic responses to bodyweight jumping in simulated Lunar ...
