Zeolite Formation and Weathering Processes within the Martian Regolith: an Antarctic
As more information is obtained about the nature of the surface compositions and processes operating on Mars, it is clear that significant erosional and deposi-tional features are present on the surface [1]. Apparent aqueous or other fluid activity on Mars has produced many of the erosional and outflow features observed. Evidence of aqueous activity on Mars has been reported by earlier studies....

متن کاملBiota and Chemical Weathering
The Earth has an average surface temperature of about 15°C, which is, in terms of planetary conditions suitable for life, the equivalent of winning the cosmic lottery. Yet, without an atmosphere filled with biological waste gases capable of retaining heat (O2, N2O, CH4, CO2), the average temperature of the planet would be about −18°C (Smil 2002), making the present diversity and abundance of li...

متن کاملCRONO - A code for the simulation of chemical weathering
CRONO is a new code for simulating chemical weathering. This program allows for the simulation of complex scenarios of interaction in water-rock-gas systems while accounting for mineral dissolution kinetics and solution transport. The thermodynamic calculations are realized using the GEOCHEQ program. CRONO was developed for simulations of regolith formation on the surfaces of early Earth and Ma...
