The Periglacial Landscape Of Utopia Planitia; Geologic Evidence For Recent Climate Change On Mars. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The northern plains of Utopia Planitia, Mars, hosts an abundance of potential periglacial landforms including scalloped depressions, gullies, and polygon networks. This research was undertaken to investigate the distribution and stratigraphy of scalloped depressions in Utopia Planitia and to reconstruct the past environment in which this periglacial ...

The Analysis of Cones within the Tianwen-1 Landing Area

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
On 15 May 2021, the Zhurong rover of China’s first Mars mission, Tianwen-1 (TW-1), successfully landed in southern Utopia Planitia on Mars. Various landforms were present in the landing area, and this area recorded a complex geological history. Cones are

Evaluation and Analysis of Dust Storm Activity in Tianwen-1 Landing Area Based on the Moderate Resolution Imaging Camera Observations and Mars Daily Global Maps

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
The first Mars exploration mission from China (Tianwen-1) was launched on 23 July 2020 with the goal of “orbiting, landing, and roving”. The occurrence of dust storm activities is an important criterion of assessing atmospheric risk for the Tianwen-1 ...

Characteristics of Dust Devils in Two Pre-Selected Landing Regions of the Tianwen-1 Mission—Comparing Observations and Predictions Using Numerical Model

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
The spatial and temporal distribution of dust devils (DDs) in the two pre-selected landing regions (ZA and ZB) of the Tianwen-1 mission in southern Utopia Planitia have been investigated by using images from the Context Camera (CTX) of the Mars ...
