متن کاملSmall-scale morphologic properties of martian gullies: insights from analysis of HiRISE images
Introduction: The discovery of abundant, geologically recent gullies on Mars in Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) images [1] has led to numerous studies examining potential mechanisms for recent fluid or fluid-rich surface processes [e.g., 1-2]. The process or processes involved in Martian gully formation provide important insights into Martian geologic and volatile history. ...
متن کاملPotential martian mineral resources: Mechanisms and terrestrial analogues
The future exploration of Mars is likely to utilize resources that can be extracted in situ. An overview of the geology of Mars has been presented and several mechanisms that could result in the formation of ore deposits have been identified. These include deposits caused by hydrothermal fluids resulting from volcanic activity, large igneous province formation and impact craters. Surface enrich...
متن کاملDebris Flow as a Mechanism for Forming Martian Gullies
The current low temperatures and pressures at the martian surface are not conducive to the stability of liquid water; hence the discovery of recently active, fluvial-like gullies [1, 2] presents an apparent paradox: how can these fluvial landforms have occurred if water is not stable at the surface? To approach this problem we have compared the morphometric properties of gullies in various sett...
متن کاملExamining Formation Mechanisms of Martian Gullies Using Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter Context Imagery
Introduction: Current temperature and pressure conditions on Mars suggest that liquid water is unstable at the surface with respect to boiling and freezing. However, gully features, generally consisting of alcoves , channels, and debris aprons and existing in a band at mid latitudes mainly in the southern hemisphere with a possible preference for pole-facing orien-tations [1, 2], suggest liquid...
