MARC recordThe frozen landscape of Mars / Michael T. Mellon.
| Title: | The frozen landscape of Mars / Michael T. Mellon. |
| Author(s): | Mellon, Michael T. |
| Date: | 2004. |
| Publisher: | Cambridge: Cambridge University Press |
| In: | Icy worlds of the solar system. (2004.), |
| Abstract: | Reviews development of understanding of polar ice caps on Mars through terrestrial observations and space missions. Discusses conditions on planet and compares ice caps with those on Earth. Discusses seasonality on Mars, origins of features and patterns on or near ice caps, nature of deposits in deep interior, interaction between polar water ice and atmosphere, Martian permafrost and ground ice, evidence for water and ice/rock glacier flow, climate change on Mars and possibilities of life or colonisation. |
