Mars Express Bistatic Radar Observations in Northern Mars Plains with Possible Application to Phoenix Landing Site Characterization

Introduction: Mars Express (MEX) bistatic radar (BSR) ground tracks will not move to far northern (e.g., Phoenix) latitudes until June 2006. But the generally uniform appearance of these plains areas suggests that certain surface characteristics may be inferred from observations already in hand. Of particular interest are two MEX experiments conducted in the vicinity of the Viking Lander 2 site...

“blebby” Terrain and Domes on the Northern Plains of Mars: Evidence of Ancient Ice Ages?

Introduction: In recent years, a number of researchers have recognized signs of past glacial activity on Mars and features that could be extant rock glaciers [1,2]. There has also been the recognition of " pasted on " terrains which are interpreted as dust-covered snow or ice deposits [3]. Many of these features are attributed to relatively recent (within the last several million years) periods...

Evaluation of coalbed methane potential in Parvadeh IV coal deposit in central Iran using a combination of MARS modeling and Kriging

Coalbed methane (CBM) plays an important role in coal mining safety and natural gas production. In this work, The CBM potential of B2 seam in Parvadeh IV coal deposit, in central Iran, was evaluated using a combination of local regression and geostatistical methods. As there were 30 sparse methane sampling points in the Parvadeh IV coal deposit, no valid variogram was achieved for the methane c...
