Modeling the variations of Dose Rate measured by RAD during the first MSL Martian year: 2012-2014 [PDF]
The Radiation Assessment Detector (RAD), on board Mars Science Laboratory's (MSL) rover Curiosity, measures the {energy spectra} of both energetic charged and neutral particles along with the radiation dose rate at the surface of Mars.

An Automated Approach for Change Detection in Mars Time-Series Images from Online Image Archives using Web Crawler and Deep Learning [PDF]
Mars is a dynamic planet exhibiting numerous active surface phenomena, such as recurring slope lineae (RSL), commonly seen on the Martian surface in the mid-latitude regions.

Experimental Investigation of the Atmosphere-Regolith Water Cycle on Present-Day Mars
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
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
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.

Mineralogical characterization of Martian Jezero crater from MRO CRISM hyperspectral images [PDF]
Martian mineral detection and mapping can provide important information and constraints on Martian aqueous history, which can be used to assess the potential habitability of Mars.

Microbial growth in actual martian regolith in the form of Mars meteorite EETA79001
Studies to understand the growth of organisms on Mars are hampered by the use of simulants to duplicate martian mineralogy and chemistry. Even though such materials are improving, no terrestrial simulant can replace a real martian sample.
