Reflectance spectroscopy has been shown to be a powerful tool for this purpose. For the meteorites dominated by silicate minerals, quantitative analysis of spectral absorption features caused by the Fe<sup>2+</sup>-bearing minerals (mainly olivine and pyroxene) is a common method to determine mafic silicate mineralogy and end member abundances, and establish the relationship between them and possible parent bodies. In this study, the reflectance spectra of 22 primitive achondrites (acapulcoites, lodranites and winonaites) from NASA RELAB database were analyzed to determine their positions in the plot of the band area ratio (BAR) and 1 μm band center (Band I center). We found that Band I center and BAR of acapulcoites and lodranites are in roughly the same range. Acapulcoite-lodranite partially overlap with the field of H chondrites in the plot of the BAR and Band I center. This overlap means that spectral calibrations (also referred to as mineralogical formulas) based on the two types of meteorites needs to be applied with caution. The 2 μm band center of acapulcoite–lodranite is significantly lower than that of H chondrites, which is consistent with the conclusion of previous studies and provides a means to separate these two groups. In addition, the choice of spectral parameter analysis techniques may be a potential error source in similar studies. We provide generalized spectral fields of primitive achondrites in the plot of the BAR and Band I center derived from two widely used technologies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":13199,"journal":{"name":"Icarus","volume":"425 ","pages":"Article 116320"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142274335","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Detailed geomorphological studies have recently made it possible to identify many landslide-like landforms along the slopes bordering pits of Sisyphi Cavi in Noachis Terra, the southern hemisphere of Mars. These pieces of evidence are generally characterized by extended trenches, sometimes associated with uphill- or downhill-facing scarps. In this study, the gravity-induced processes observed in this region of Mars, and especially those present in a closed pit of the eastern sector, are described for the first time. A quantitative stress-strain analysis was performed, and it excludes a type of deformation process that could invoke creep processes (“viscosity-driven”) but rather favors instability induced by stress-perturbations in the slope more concentrated over time (“force-driven”). In particular, we performed a parametric analysis on both viscosity and stiffness parameters of the materials involved. It demonstrates that the time necessary for the rheological evolution of deformational processes associated with the observed landforms are compatible with genesis of short-term instabilities. This finding has significant implications for the origin of the depressed forms within and close to the study area, which are characterized by unstable slopes present at their edges. It is therefore not necessary to invoke the role of “viscosity-driven” creep processes to explain the origin of the shapes associated with the observed gravity-induced slope instabilities. The reported results drive towards a new interpretative scenario of morphological evolution of the widespread pits in the study area in terms of efficiency of endogenous processes (such as hypabyssal magmatism) which characterize the studied area of Mars, even if it is not possible to exclude the role of exogenous processes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":13199,"journal":{"name":"Icarus","volume":"425 ","pages":"Article 116314"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142274334","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While earlier studies have derived dielectric constants for the shallow subsurface, further characterization of subsurface materials requires the determination of attenuation properties. In this study, we applied the centroid-frequency shift method to explore the attenuation property of the Martian regolith in the frequency domain. Lateral attenuation variation was analyzed in detail by integrating subsurface radargram and navigation terrain images. The results show that, within a depth of ∼4 m, the attenuation of radar signal for Zhurong subsurface material is equal to a loss tangent of 0.0079, with a standard deviation of 0.001. Based on the loss tangent value, dielectric permittivity and ground characterization, we preclude the possibility that the regolith is predominantly igneous materials. The lateral variation of the attenuation property could likely be attributed to changes in the proportion of duricrusts, which are heterogeneously distributed along the rover traverse.

However, the limitation of single-spacecraft measurements prevents simultaneous observations of the driver and response of this “ringing” process of the Martian magnetosphere.

Large-scale vortices, a prominent feature of gas giant atmospheres, play a critical role in their atmospheric dynamics. By employing three distinct methods – manual detection, machine learning via artificial neural networks (ANN), and dynamical detection using the Automated Eddy-Detection Algorithm (AMEDA) – we characterise the spatial, temporal, and dynamical properties of these vortices within the Saturn-DYNAMICO GCM. Our findings reveal a consistent production of vortices due to well-resolved eddy-to-mean flow interactions, exhibiting size and intensity distributions broadly in agreement with observational data. However, notable differences in vortex location, size, and concentration highlight the model’s limitations and suggest areas for further refinement. The analysis underscores the importance of zonal wind conditions in influencing vortex characteristics and suggests that more accurate modelling of giant planet vortices may require improved representation of moist convection and jet structure. This study not only provides insights into the dynamics of Saturn’s atmosphere as simulated by the GCM but also offers a framework for comparing vortex characteristics across observations and models of planetary atmospheres.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":13199,"journal":{"name":"Icarus","volume":"425 ","pages":"Article 116302"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0019103524003622/pdfft?md5=a06038aec5672d68278236e3e8477e07&pid=1-s2.0-S0019103524003622-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142230323","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
