Together with other effects (water spillage, compression forces, etc.) this mechanism likely contributes to sealing the vent. In this work, we develop a simple lumped-parameter model that can quantify how quickly a hypothetical vent of prescribed width would be sealed via water-vapor deposition. As an example, we apply our model to the vent size and density conditions inferred from the 2012 Hubble Space Telescope plume detection, predicting a sealing time of about 30 min. This suggests that the actual ice fracture might have been larger than originally proposed and/or the plume density at the vent might have been lower. While many other effects could have been present and responsible for sealing the vent, our estimates indicate that vapor deposition might have played a major role in eventually shutting off the observed plume. A map of sealing times vs. plume density, mass flow rate and aperture areas is given. Plume quantities from the literature are analyzed and compared to our results.

The catchment area of the river-like valley, presumably formed in the Hesperian period (3000–3700 Ma ago), has been shaped over time by many influences. The goal of this study is to explore and separate these potential influences including changes in the water level of the Uzboi Vallis, its erosion base. The other aim is to detect and describe the effects of tectonic processes for we have found potential evidence. Our working hypothesis is that Nirgal Vallis was once a river valley: our study analyses this possibility. The climate of Mars has undergone drastic changes in the past, and liquid water is currently not stable on the surface. The formation of former river valleys after the active wet period continued, including Nirgal Vallis. Morphometric techniques were applied based on MOLA, THEMIS, and HiRISE data. The topography of the Nirgal Vallis have been analyzed by swath analysis, calculation of various geomorphometric parameters, and runoff model. HiRISE digital terrain models having decimeter-scale resolution derived from the HiRISE stereopairs have been used for the detailed analysis.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A subdivision of the Nirgal Vallis according to its tectonic geomorphological structures was established. The swath analysis and the runoff model calculation show that, although the valley does not have a strict thalweg today, i.e., water currently cannot flow down it, the valley does have a trend of slope along the whole length and even intermittent slope changes can be observed along the whole valley. Several small-scale morphological features were also identified using MOLA data.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We conclude that the tectonic processes have transformed the morphology of the riverbed: it is divided into small sections (closed basins) so that currently water would not be able to flow down in it. Extraterrestrial (i.e. effects from outside Mars) causes on Mars also influence this, i.e. the formation of larger and smaller craters has also left its mark on the topography. We interpret the subperpendicular elongated morphological features on the plateau surrounding Nirgal Vallis as wrinkle ridges: their size, shape and spacing is similar to those identified by previous authors elsewhere. We also found evidence that the valley bottom has also been modified by the processes that formed the wrinkle ridges. Our observations imply younger tectonic influence of the area, presumably, postdating the fluvial erosional regime.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Luki Crater, located near the confluence of Nirgal Vallis and Uzboi Vallis, has also been analyzed, and evidence has been found to be tectonically modified.

In this work, we present a method for the automatic morphologic classification of Martian craters using imbalanced Mars image datasets. Specifically, we classified and cropped Tianwen-1’s MoRIC images according to the morphological features of craters based on Robbins’ impact crater catalog; a dataset of six different types of Mars impact craters was established using the images. Based on this dataset, we classified the Mars impact craters using three popular neural network models with CNN and Transformer architectures. Meanwhile, to address the imbalanced samples in the network training process, a common problem in planetary remote sensing datasets, we introduce two methods (i.e., label smoothing strategy and weighted loss function) to suppress its influence on classification accuracy. Experimental results show that the Vision Transformer (ViT) model has the highest classification accuracy, reaching 90.3%. The label smoothing strategy performs well in CNN approaches, among which VGGNet11 improves the accuracy by 2.2%.
