Geologic Constraints on the Glacial Amplification of Phanerozoic Climate Sensitivity
The long-term carbon cycle depends on many feedbacks. Silicate weathering consumes atmospheric CO2, but is also enhanced by the increased temperatures brought about by this important greenhouse gas. The long-term sensitivity T2x of climate to CO2-doubling modulates the strength of this negative feedback. We update the model-experiment of Royer and others (2007) by estimating an empirical probab...
متن کاملEarly Mars Climate Models
It is often stated that Mars and Earth had similar environmental conditions early in their history and that life might therefore have originated on Mars as well as on Earth. However, the atmospheric conditions required to produce and sustain a warm, wet climate on early Mars remain uncertain. State-of-the-art greenhouse models predict global mean surface temperatures early in Mars' history that...
متن کاملGeologic setting of serpentine deposits on Mars
[1] Serpentine, recently discovered on Mars using Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter data, is uncommon but found in three geologic settings: (1) in mélange terrains at the Claritas Rise and the Nili Fossae, (2) associated with a few southern highlands impact craters, and (3) associated with a regional olivine‐rich stratigraphic unit near the Isidis basin. Any presently active serpentinization processe...
متن کاملGeologic history of Mars
a r t i c l e i n f o Mars accumulated and differentiated into crust, mantle and core within a few tens of millions of years of Solar System formation. Formation of Hellas, which has been adopted as the base of the Noachian period, is estimated to have occurred around 4.1 to 3.8 Gyr ago, depending on whether or not the planet experienced a late cataclysm. Little is known of the pre-Noachian per...
متن کاملGeologic Constraints on Seismic Inversion
Velocity model estimation from seismic data using prestack depth migration is an un-derdetermined problem: there are many subtly diierent models which are not kinematically equivalent. As these models can give rise to dramatically diierent interpretations and decisions there is a clear need for a selection criterion in order to choose the "best" (i.e. geologically most plausible) one. Interpret...
