The Martian surface radiation environment – a comparison of models and MSL/RAD measurements [PDF]
Journal of Space Weather and Space Climate, 2016 Context: The Radiation Assessment Detector (RAD) on the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) has been measuring the radiation environment on the surface of Mars since August 6th 2012. MSL-RAD is the first instrument to provide detailed information about charged

Martian sub-surface ionising radiation: biosignatures and geology [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2007 The surface of Mars, unshielded by thick atmosphere or global magnetic field, is exposed to high levels of cosmic radiation. This ionising radiation field is deleterious to the survival of dormant cells or spores and the persistence of molecular ...

ESTIMATION OF AEOLIAN DUNE MIGRATION OVER MARTIAN SURFACE EMPLOYING HIGH PRECISION PHOTOGRAMMETRIC MEASUREMENTS [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2017 At the present time, arguments continue regarding the migration speeds of Martian dune fields and their correlation with atmospheric circulation. However, precisely measuring the spatial translation of Martian dunes has been rarely successful due to the ...

Modelling Martian Moons' Surface Temperature
IntroductionThe two martian moons, Phobos and Deimos, will be visited by the sample return JAXA mission MMX in 2027 (launch planned in October 2026). They orbits Mars at respectively 9400 and Deimos at 23000km, with low inclinations and eccentricities. Their heavily processed surfaces harbour a fine regolith [1].

Martian Surface Coordinates [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research, 1973 This paper presents methods and results for primary and secondary triangulation of the Martian surface. The primary network is based on multiphotograph stereophotogrammetry in which the pictures are rotated around fixed centers; these centers are provided as spacecraft stations from the tracking data.

What Is the Radiation Impact of Extreme Solar Energetic Particle Events on Mars?
Space Weather, 2023 Solar Energetic Particles (SEP) are one of the major sources of the Martian radiation environment. It is important to understand the SEP‐induced Martian radiation environment for future human habitats on Mars.
