Analyzing Paleolakes to Understand the Geologic and Climate Record on Mars
Panayiota Siskos ’23 Liquid, running water has played an important role in forming the Martian surfaces and landforms that may be important in understanding the planet’s past. In particular, paleolakes, one such landform, have been found throughout Mars and offer insight into regional geologic history and climate evolution. Paleolake morphology and distribution reflect water distribution and lake deposits compositions, which in turn indicate hydrologic and … Continue reading Analyzing Paleolakes to Understand the Geologic and Climate Record on Mars
