Lobate Forms Around Craters on the Moon and Mercury: Origin From Landslides, Ejecta Flows and Modification Stage Collapse

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Lobate forms emanate from impact craters and have morphologies indicating ground‐hugging emplacement via flow. We present global surveys of lobate forms on the Moon and Mercury. Very few examples have previously been reported on either body, with debate over their interpretation as either crater rim landslides or ejecta flows.

The circulatory impact of dust from dust profile assimilation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We present results from a reanalysis of temperatures, dust columns and dust vertical profiles focussing on the assimilation, distribution and transport of dust in the martian atmosphere.

Magnetic Mineralogy in Lunar Mare Basalts and Implications for Paleointensity Retrieval

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Lunar paleomagnetic studies have identified multidomain metallic Fe–Ni alloys as the dominant magnetic contributors in mare basalts. Here, we explore the low‐temperature magnetic behavior of standard samples for a suite of opaque minerals that occur within mare basalts (single‐domain and multidomain Fe, wüstite, ulvöspinel, iron chromite ...

Predicting the probability distribution of Martian rocks mechanical property based on microscale rock mechanical experiments and accurate grain-based modeling

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mining Science and Technology
The exploration of Mars would heavily rely on Martian rocks mechanics and engineering technology. As the mechanical property of Martian rocks is uncertain, it is of utmost importance to predict the probability distribution of Martian rocks mechanical ...

Mars base buildup scenarios [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Two Mars surface based build-up scenarios are presented in order to help visualize the mission and to serve as a basis for trade studies. In the first scenario, direct manned landings on the Martian surface occur early in the missions and scientific ...

The Effect of Near‐Surface Winds on Surface Temperature and Dust Transport on Venus

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract The knowledge of the Venus near‐surface atmosphere is sparse. Few spacecrafts landed on the surface and measured winds with amplitudes below 1 m/s. The diurnal cycle of the wind amplitude and orientation is not known. Recent numerical simulations showed that slope winds along topographic structures could strongly impact the direction of winds.

Results of current Mars studies at the IAU Planetary Research Center [PDF]

open access: yes
Ground based images obtained hourly by seven observatories are used to study Martian phenomena. Maps of global dust storms show the degree of activity of the storm depends both on the region and on the time of day.
