Temporal analysis of all high-resolution Mars imaging products [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2014 A meta-data analysis has been performed of high-resolution imagery that have been acquired over the last four decades from Mars. More specifically, we are interested in two independent image parameters, the time that each image was acquired and the ...

Structure Along the Martian Dichotomy Constrained by Rayleigh and Love Waves and Their Overtones
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Using seismic recordings of event S1222a, we measure dispersion curves of Rayleigh and Love waves, including their first overtones, and invert these for shear velocity (VS) and radial anisotropic structure of the Martian crust.

Experimental Investigation of the Atmosphere-Regolith Water Cycle on Present-Day Mars
Sensors, 2021 The water content of the upper layers of the surface of Mars is not yet quantified. Laboratory simulations are the only feasible way to investigate this in a controlled way on Earth, and then compare it with remote and in situ observations of spacecrafts

Perchlorates on Mars enhance the bacteriocidal effects of UV light
Scientific Reports, 2017 Perchlorates have been identified on the surface of Mars. This has prompted speculation of what their influence would be on habitability. We show that when irradiated with a simulated Martian UV flux, perchlorates become bacteriocidal.

Optical Constants of Martian Dust Analogs at UV–Visible–Near-infrared Wavelengths
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 We present an advanced light-scattering model to retrieve the optical constants of three Martian dust analogs: Johnson Space Center regolith simulant, Enhanced Mojave Mars Simulant, and Mars Global Simulant.
