Seasonal southern circum-polar spots and araneiforms observed with the colour and stereo surface imaging system (CaSSIS)

چکیده

The southern polar area of Mars is home to various seasonal activity commonly explained by the Kieffer model. During spring, ice covering sublimates and leaves distinct features (spiders, spots, fans) observable from orbit. Colour Stereo Surface Imaging System (CaSSIS) onboard ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO), provides high-resolution multi-filter images Martian surface offering high sensitivity colour contrasts. Its stereo capability pivotal for momentary processes offers a unique perspective studying sublimation their relation atmospheric features. For first time, we identify clouds well correlated with (araneiforms spots at circum-polar latitudes) hence motivating new campaign refine these observations over time periods where CO2 occur. We focus here on structure spot deposits evolution through time. describe seven structures: dark spot, bright-haloed ringed inverted dark-haloed banded bright spot. By morphological spectral analyses, hypothesize chronology events that characterise origin, formation

Geometric calibration of Colour and Stereo Surface Imaging System of ESAâ€TMs Trace Gas Orbiter

There are many geometric calibration methods for ‘‘standard” cameras. These methods, however, cannot be used for the calibration of telescopes with large focal lengths and complex off-axis optics. Moreover, specialized calibration methods for the telescopes are scarce in literature. We describe the calibration method that we developed for the Colour and Stereo Surface Imaging System (CaSSIS) te...

Mars Polar Cold Spots Observed by Mro/mars Climate Sounder

Introduction: Using radiometric observations from the Mars Climate Sounder (MCS) during southern winter, we report evidence that polar cold spots (T b < 135 K) at Mars' south pole are correlated with tro-pospheric, optically thick clouds. In limb observations coincident with nadir measurements of low brightness temperature regions, clouds appear as radiation sources at typical altitudes of 20 –...

the evaluation of language related engagment and task related engagment with the purpose of investigating the effect of metatalk and task typology

abstract while task-based instruction is considered as the most effective way to learn a language in the related literature, it is oversimplified on various grounds. different variables may affect how students are engaged with not only the language but also with the task itself. the present study was conducted to investigate language and task related engagement on the basis of the task typolog...
