Anaerobic Photosynthesizers and their Potential to Create a Biosphere on the Surface of the Red Planet [PDF]
فناوری در مهندسی هوافضا, 2023 The atmosphere of the Red Planet or Mars contains 95% of carbon dioxide, 3% of nitrogen, 1.6% of argon and only a small amount of oxygen, and in terms of concentration is about one percent of the planet's atmosphere, which makes it virtually impossible ...

Alternate oscillations of Martian hydrogen and oxygen upper atmospheres during a major dust storm
Nature Communications, 2022 Dust storms on Mars drive water escape to space. Here, the authors show the impact Martian dust storms have on the abundance of atmospheric hydrogen and oxygen, and how this helps to overall oxidize the Martian atmosphere.

Diurnal Variations of Water Ice in the Martian Atmosphere Observed by Mars Climate Sounder
Remote Sensing, 2022 Simulation studies have proposed a significant thermal effect of water ice clouds on the Martian atmosphere and climate. However, previous studies focused more on seasonal variations but less on short-term changes.

Oxygen Isotopes and Volatiles in Martian Meteorite [PDF]
, 2013 Oxygen isotopes were measured in mineral separates from martian meteorites using laser fluorination and were found to be remarkably uniform in both δ18O and Δ17O, suggesting that martian magmas did not assimilate aqueously altered crust regardless of any

Evaluation of the Atmospheric Chemical Entropy Production of Mars
Entropy, 2015 Thermodynamic disequilibrium is a necessary situation in a system in which complex emergent structures are created and maintained. It is known that most of the chemical disequilibrium, a particular type of thermodynamic disequilibrium, in Earth’s ...
