Abstract Shergottites are the most abundant meteorites from Mars and a major source of information on magma reservoirs, transport, and eruption, particularly in the late Hesperian northern hemisphere. Conflicting interpretations have arisen on the crystallization conditions of pyroxene in olivine‐phyric shergottites.

On Earth, marine anaerobic methane oxidation (AOM) can be driven by the microbial reduction of sulfate, iron, and manganese. Here, we have further characterized marine sediment incubations to determine if the mineral dependent methane oxidation involves ...

Martian Surface and Atmosphere Workshop
The NASA‐sponsored Martian Surface and Atmosphere Through Time Study Project convened its first major meeting at the University of Colorado in Boulder, September 23–25, 1991. The workshop, co‐sponsored by the Lunar and Planetary Institute (LPI) and the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics at the University of Colorado, brought together an ...

Martian Surface Paleotemperatures from Thermochronology of Meteorites
The temporal evolution of past martian surface temperatures is poorly known. We used thermochronology and published noble gas and petrographic data to constrain the temperature histories of the nakhlites and martian meteorite ALH84001. We found that the nakhlites have not been heated to more than 350°C since they formed.

Abstract Boron and lithium have been observed in Ca‐sulfate veins of Gale crater. These elements are highly water mobile and can inform us regarding the aqueous processes that may have taken place in Gale crater. However, the analysis of B in Gale crater is limited to low‐Fe rocks and minerals due to spectral interference of Fe with B in ChemCam data ...

Atmospheric origins of perchlorate on Mars and in the Atacama [PDF]
Times Cited: 22Isotopic studies indicate that natural perchlorate is produced on Earth in arid environments by the oxidation of chlorine species through pathways involving ozone or its photochemical products.

Abstract Hardware released during spacecraft entry can generate hypervelocity impacts that provide unique constraints on planetary subsurface properties. During NASA's Perseverance descent, two tungsten cruise ballast mass devices (CBMD) and fragments of the cruise stage formed meter‐scale craters north‐west of Jezero crater, in one of the sinuous ...

Electron Regulation of Proton Cyclotron Waves at Mars
Abstract Proton cyclotron waves (PCWs), generated by the solar wind ionization and subsequent pickup of exospheric hydrogen, offer independent constraints on water loss from Mars. However, translating wave observations into quantitative escape rates has been hindered by an incomplete understanding of wave evolution, particularly the role of electron ...

Mars Crater Production Function Based on Mapped Crater Populations
The Martian isochrons are the basis in analyzing the impact flux and surface dating, and currently, they are usually derived from those of the Moon because no samples have been collected from Mars.

Abstract Perchlorate (ClO4−) in polar ice preserves past chlorine oxidation chemistry; however, multi‐centennial Antarctic ClO4− records and the mechanisms controlling their variability remain poorly constrained. Here, we present the first 400‐year (1616−2016) ClO4− record from an Antarctic ice core, revealing two regimes separated around 1980.
