Time and Length Scales of the Martian Atmospheric Turbulence as Observed by the InSight Lander

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
We provide a statistical analysis of the Martian near‐surface atmospheric turbulence based on in situ wind observations from NASA's InSight lander. We focus on the variations in length and time scales of the Martian atmospheric turbulence caused by the ...

Morphology of Antarctic Polygons and Implications for Polygon Evolution and Subsurface Ice Dynamics

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 143-153, January/March 2026.
ABSTRACT Polygonal terrain results from thermal contraction, is commonly found in periglacial environments, and serves as a valuable proxy for interpreting subsurface ice distribution and climate history on Earth and Mars. In this study, we investigate the morphology of polygons in Beacon Valley, Antarctica, to assess the relationship between polygon ...

Field Measurements of Terrestrial and Martian Dust Devils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Surface-based measurements of terrestrial and martian dust devils/convective vortices provided from mobile and stationary platforms are discussed. Imaging of terrestrial dust devils has quantified their rotational and vertical wind speeds, translation ...

The Effect of Tip Design on Technological Performance During the Exploration of Earth, Lunar, and Martian Soil Environments

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 1, Page 387-408, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the penetration performance of soil‐burrowing probes with different tip designs during shallow‐depth penetration in various media, including terrestrial soils (Hostun sand) and well‐characterized planetary soil simulants (LHS‐1 Lunar regolith simulant and MGS‐1 Martian regolith simulant).

The THEMIS Control Network of Mars

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The accurate co‐registration of geospatial data is necessary to answer questions that cross‐cut disciplines and are key to understanding fundamental questions about our Solar System. To address this need and provide an updated product for Mars that is tied to a common reference frame, we have photogrammetrically controlled Thermal Emission ...

The search for ancient life on Mars using morphological and mass spectrometric analysis: an analog study in detecting microfossils in Messinian gypsum

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
Hydrated sulfate deposits have been detected on Mars. A spaceflight instrument capable of detecting microfossils in these salt deposits is highly important for the search for ancient life on Mars.
