New Insights into High-Speed Martian Landslides
Landslide deposits on Mars have been studied extensively over the last few years. Previous investigations have invoked the presence of near-surface ice to reduce friction at the base of the […]

Motivated student sought to pursue research relevant to the Mars 2020 rover investigation, which will land in Jezero Crater in early 2021. (See https://mars.nasa.gov/mars2020/mission/overview/). Area of specialization will be determined […]
Stony Brook University has an opening for a Ph.D. student interested in experimentally investigating the interaction of volcanic gas and martian surface materials and assessing the IR spectral signature of […]
Impact craters and basins are the dominant geologic features of many planetary surfaces. The paucity of large impact basins on Mars (only four are unambiguous: Hellas, Argyre, Utopia, and Isidis) presents […]
Bedrock exposures on the surface of Mars are compositionally dominated by olivine, pyroxene, and feldspar minerals, so are understandably thought to be made up by lava flows. However, recent work […]
We would like to draw your attention to the following special session at the 26th Goldschmidt Conference in Yokohama, Japan (June 26 to July 1). Abstract deadline is February 26, […]
