Atmospheric Distribution and Escape of Odd Nitrogen on Mars

The Astronomical Journal
The total nitrogen budget in the Martian upper atmosphere is significantly contributed by the presence of odd nitrogen, mainly in the form of NO and ground-state or excited-state N.

Feasibility of in situ K‐Ar isochron dating on Mars: assessment using the mineralogy of Martian meteorites

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Dating rocks with a 2σ precision of 200 Ma is required to understand the history of Martian habitability and volcanic activity since ~4000 Ma. In situ K‐Ar dating using a spot‐by‐spot laser ablation technique has been developed for isochron dating on Mars.

High-fidelity subsurface thermal model as part of a Martian atmospheric column model [PDF]

Geoscientific Instrumentation, Methods and Data Systems, 2013
As the Martian atmosphere is observed in ever greater detail, more realistic computer models are required to interpret these measurements. Physical exchange processes between the atmosphere's lower boundary and the surface are often simplified.

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.

A Thermal Plume Model for the Martian Convective Boundary Layer

, 2013
The Martian Planetary Boundary Layer [PBL] is a crucial component of the Martian climate system. Global Climate Models [GCMs] and Mesoscale Models [MMs] lack the resolution to predict PBL mixing which is therefore parameterized.

Interplanetary Magnetic Field Effect on the Location of the Martian Bow Shock: MAVEN Observations

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The Martian bow shock (BS) is generated with the mass-loading and magnetic pileup processes when the solar wind interacts with the Martian ionosphere. In this vein, the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) frozen in the solar wind can affect the location ...

Predicted Diurnal Variation of the Deuterium to Hydrogen Ratio in Water at the Surface of Mars Caused by Mass Exchange with the Regolith [PDF]

, 2019
Regolith on Mars exchanges water with the atmosphere on a diurnal basis and this process causes significant variation in the abundance of water vapor at the surface. While previous studies of regolith-atmosphere exchange focus on the abundance, recent in-

Passive Observation of Martian Atmosphere Using O₂(a¹Δ_g) Airglow Radiation: Forward Simulation and Wind Retrieval

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
The passive monitoring of Martian wind fields is crucial for deciphering the Martian atmosphere. With the 3 strong spectral lines in the 1.27 μm O2(a1Δg) airglow emission band, this article designs the Martian Static Wind Imaging Michelson ...
