Planetary analogs in Antarctica: Mars

A study of chemical and physical weathering rates in Antarctic ice-free areas, sponsored by the National Science Foundation's Antarctic Research Program, permitted observations to be made that also have application other planetary surfaces. Four observations relevent to Mars are addressed: the...
