Persistent burglars and knocks on doors: Causal indispensability of knowing vindicated
Abstract The aim of the present article is to accomplish two things. The first is to show that given some further plausible assumptions, existing challenges to the indispensability of knowledge in causal explanation of action fail. The second is to elaborate an overlooked and distinct argument in favor of the causal efficacy of knowledge.

Temporal analysis of all high-resolution Mars imaging products [PDF]
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
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.

Water storage capacity of the Martian mantle through time [PDF]
Water has been stored in the Martian mantle since its formation, primarily in nominally anhydrous minerals. The short-lived early hydrosphere and intermittently flowing water on the Martian surface may have been supplied and replenished by magmatic degassing of water from the mantle.

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.
