    Atmospheric H2O and the search for Martian brines

    Author(s): Zent, Aaron P.; Fanale, Fraser P.; Postawko, S. E.
    Abstract: Abundant martian brines would have important implication for current theories of volatile migration on Mars, since, although the presence of metastable brines is quite plausible, any brine in the reasonably near-surface ...

    Water regime of Phobos

    Author(s): Fanale, Fraser P.
    Abstract: The Final Technical Report on water regime of Phobos is presented. During the report period two papers were published. The models predicted the depth to the buried ice interface on Phobos and the current H2O flux from Phobos ...

    Quasi-periodic atmosphere-regolith-cap CO2 redistribution in the martian past

    Author(s): Fanale, Fraser P.; Salvail, James R.
    Abstract: Our earlier Mars regolith-atmosphere-cap CO2 distribution model (Fanale et al., 1982, Icarus 50, 381-407) has been improved, revised, and extended back over Mars' mid to late history. The present model takes into account ...

    The effect of volume phase changes, mass transport, sunlight penetration, and densification on the thermal regime of icy regoliths

    Author(s): Fanale, Fraser P.; Salvail, James R.; Matson, Dennis L.; Brown, Robert H.
    Abstract: The present quantitative modeling of convective, condensational, and sublimational effects on porous ice crust volumes subjected to solar radiation encompasses the effect of such insolation's penetration of visible ...

    Mars - Epochal climate change and volatile history

    Author(s): Fanale, Fraser P.; Postawko, Susan E.; Pollack, James B.; Carr, Michael H.; Pepin, Robert O.
    Abstract: The epochal climate change and volatile history of Mars are examined, with special attention given to evidence for and mechanisms of long-term climate change. Long-term climate change on Mars is indicated most directly by ...

    Influence of heat flow on early Martian climate

    Author(s): Postawko, Susan; Fanale, Fraser P.
    Abstract: Previous arguments have suggested that the formation of the valley networks on Mars may be explained by higher internal regolith temperatures associated with a much higher heat flow early in the planet's history. It is ...

    CO2: Adsorption on palagonite and the Martian regolith

    Author(s): Zent, Aaron P.; Fanale, Fraser P.; Postawko, Susan E.
    Abstract: Possible scenarios for the evolution of the Martian climate are discussed. In the interest of determining an upper limit on the absorptive capacity of the Martian regolith, researchers examined the results of Fanale and ...

    The influence of CO ice on the activity and the near-surface differentiation of comet nuclei

    Author(s): Fanale, Fraser P.; Salvail, James R.
    Abstract: A comet nucleus model whose composition is a homogeneous mixture of water ice, CO ice, and dust, in a Halley-type orbit, is presently used to investigate the role of unclathrated CO ice in the activity and near-surface ...

    SO2 on Io: A thermodynamic perspective

    Author(s): Zent, Aaron P.; Fanale, Fraser P.
    Abstract: The presence of condensed SO2 on Io mandates a finite abundance of SO2 vapor which must be present, regardless of plume activity. The absorption of SO2 was measured on particulate sulfur and the equilibrium between absorbed ...

    Possible Martian brines - Radar observations and models

    Author(s): Zent, Aaron P.; Fanale, Fraser P.; Roth, Ladislav E.
    Abstract: The 1971 and 1973 Goldstone 12.6-cm radar observations of Mars are separate data sets which include reflectivity as a function of latitude, longitude, and season. It has been argued that secular reflectivity variations of ...
