Multidirectional Dune Dynamics Under Seasonal Winds on Mars
Abstract We present a systematic assessment of the complex aeolian bedforms across the western rim of Hellas Planitia, the largest impact basin on Mars. Repeat orbital imaging shows crescentic, transverse, and star dunes across the Hellespontus Montes region migrate, converge, and occasionally reverse course.

Ion Escape From Degenerate Induced Magnetospheres: The Case of Mars
Abstract When the cone angle of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) becomes small, induced magnetospheres of unmagnetized planets degenerate. Using hybrid simulations, we study ionospheric ion escape in a 4° cone angle case and compare it with the nominal 55° cone angle (Parker spiral) case. The total escape rate is 1.7×1025 $1.7\times 1{0}^{25}$ s−

The Functions of the Martian Canals [PDF]
WITH reference to the recent paper by Dr. Pocklington before the Royal Society, on the functions of the Martian canals, a notice of which appeared in NATURE of November 11 (p. 58), I should like to suggest that these canals may perhaps be used for power-storage purposes.

Water ice at low to midlatitudes on Mars
In this paper, we analyze water ice occurrences at the surface of Mars using near-infrared observations, and we study their distribution with a climate model. Latitudes between 45{\deg}S and 50{\deg}N are considered.

Abstract Spectrally dependent emission by the surface (i.e., surface spectral emissivity) is commonly ignored by current climate models. Surface spectral emissivity matters more in cold and dry environments than in hot and humid environments. Recent modeling studies confirmed that, for current climate simulations, this process affects the polar climate

Deriving IMF Properties From Mars Express Heavy Pickup Ion Measurements
Abstract We present Mars Express (MEX) observations of heavy pickup ions (HPUI) at Mars and a new method to derive interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) properties. The MEX HPUI measurements were organized using the upstream IMF directions measured by the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN) mission.
