The weathering degree varies significantly depending on residence time, location, climate, and the chemical composition of the meteorite. Additionally, individual meteorites can exhibit varying oxidation degrees within a single stone due to partial burial in soil. This study examines the LL7 chondrite Northwest Africa 12780, revealing heterogeneous weathering across different parts of the meteorite. While one part shows extensive metal oxidation, another remains unoxidized. Although most oxidized subsamples contain paramagnetic iron oxides, maghemite is observed in some oxidized subsamples. Our findings highlight the presence of heterogeneous weathering in meteorites, which leads to the formation of various iron oxides, including maghemite, potentially acquiring chemical remanent magnetization and overprinting primary remanence. This also indicates that certain subsamples may retain their primary remanence even in weathered meteorites.

Because all solid planetary bodies are potentially subject to hypervelocity impacts, understanding the shock response of plagioclase enables a better understanding of the geological histories of planetary bodies. This study investigates the response of andesine and bytownite to high-pressure shock waves using micro-XRD and Raman. Fourteen andesine and 11 bytownite samples, which had been previously shocked to peak pressures of 0–56 GPa, were examined. Micro-XRD revealed characteristic signatures of shock damage, including weakened diffraction intensities and heightened background signal, reflecting structural collapse under high pressures. Andesine-bearing rock showed the onset of amorphization at 28.4–29.6 GPa, progressing to complete amorphization at 47.5–50 GPa. Bytownite-bearing rock displayed a similar trend but with higher pressure thresholds: partial amorphization occurred at 25.5–27.0 GPa, and complete amorphization at 38.2–49 GPa. To quantify the degree of shock experienced by plagioclase minerals, we measured the Full Width at Half Maximum (FWHMχ) of Debye rings (from 2D XRD images) for samples across different shock levels. We established linear regression models between ΣFWHMχ and peak shock pressure for both andesine (0–28.4 GPa) and bytownite (0–25.5 GPa) using data from samples that remained crystalline. The model is particularly effective for low shock levels, while Raman is more effective at higher shock pressures. These quantitative relationships provide a valuable tool for assessing the shock history recorded in plagioclase minerals.</p>","PeriodicalId":16101,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets","volume":"130 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143939533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, their composition remains mysterious. These “pancake” domes are likely formed by a high-viscosity lava, and other studies have predicted a range of compositions, from rhyolite to basalt. In this study, we build on previous work modeling pancake domes as spreading viscous gravity currents. However, previous models of dome formation assumed that they form over a rigid lithosphere. We previously found signatures of lithospheric flexure at 14 out of 75 pancake domes and therefore built a new model of dome formation over a bending elastic lithosphere. We found that flexure during formation can influence the shape of the resulting pancake dome. Our results also support the idea that pancake domes continue to spread for a long time after their emplacement. In comparing our model to the topography of a real pancake dome (Narina Tholus), we find a range of high, though variable, lava viscosities. Our range of lava viscosities is related to the size of the observed dome, and our results for a large dome agree with those of other studies. We test different lava densities and find that a lava density of ∼2,400–2,700 kg/m<sup>3</sup> best reproduces the flexural signatures observed at Narina Tholus. Low-density lava (∼1,500 kg/m<sup>3</sup>) does not reproduce the flexural signatures, implying that dome-forming lava is not highly vesiculated.</p>","PeriodicalId":16101,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets","volume":"130 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2024JE008571","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143930224","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These generally arise from the incorrect identification of secondary, delayed power peaks in the individual altimeter records, which causes local topographic underestimations. There are many such “pits” across the GTDR, and they can lead to misinterpretation of geomorphological features. In this study, we describe GTDR data errors in detail and the situations in which they occur, and propose a method to classify spuriously low values across the entire product as potential anomalies. The method is based on the computation of the local altimeter ambiguity height around each pixel, modulated by an estimate of the relative elevation uncertainty between the pixel and the neighboring topography. We generate global maps of the potential anomalies, and find that up to 2.865% of the original product is impaired by them. They are concentrated in particular around rift systems and summit areas at low latitudes, and can be used to identify areas that would benefit from reprocessing the altimeter records.

This study analyses 28 Mars Express orbits spanning 12 years of observations from the Mars Advanced Radar for Subsurface and Ionosphere Sounding (MARSIS) instrument to characterize the variability of topside electron density profiles over strong crustal field anomalies in the southern hemisphere and far away from them. Variations are evaluated by quantifying the amount by which the electron density and total electron content depart from model fits assuming a Chapman layer. Regions of enhanced electron density, or topside layers, predominantly form during low solar activity both over and far from crustal field regions, indicating a solar cycle dependence. We find that topside layers are mostly confined to regions where crustal fields have horizontal inclinations or undergo drastic changes in orientation from vertical to horizontal. Moreover, the most horizontally extensive transient topside layers, spanning up to ∼33° latitude, are observed over unmagnetized regions dominated by draped horizontal magnetic fields.

Data were collected at Enchanted Lake between sols ∼420–426 and again between sols 556–629 when the rover returned for sampling. The goal of this paper is to describe and characterize the facies within this outcrop to help constrain the paleoenvironment of Enchanted Lake in the context of the overall fan system. Facies are defined based on observed sedimentary structures, bedding geometries, and grain size. The lack of extensive cross-stratification combined with an abundance of soft sediment deformation, planar bedding, and normal grading leads us to interpret Enchanted Lake as a turbidite succession formed in a generally unconfined prodelta environment. Such depositional environments have high preservation potential for organic matter and potential biosignatures. Samples from these rocks have been collected by <i>Perseverance</i> for a planned Mars Sample Return mission. Our interpretation of Enchanted Lake is also consistent with other sedimentary deposits in the Jezero crater, such as the Kodiak butte, which is interpreted as deltaic in origin.
