Upper mantle structure of Mars from InSight seismic data
For 2 years, the InSight lander has been recording seismic data on Mars that are vital to
constrain the structure and thermochemical state of the planet. We used observations of …

Geochemistry of Martian basalts with constraints on magma genesis
J Filiberto - Chemical Geology, 2017 - Elsevier
Over the past decade, our knowledge of the geochemical and mineralogical diversity of
Martian rocks has greatly increased. Rocks on the surface of Mars are older than most …

Surface waves and crustal structure on Mars
We detected surface waves from two meteorite impacts on Mars. By measuring group
velocity dispersion along the impact-lander path, we obtained a direct constraint on crustal …

Unique meteorite from early Amazonian Mars: Water-rich basaltic breccia Northwest Africa 7034
We report data on the martian meteorite Northwest Africa (NWA) 7034, which shares some
petrologic and geochemical characteristics with known martian meteorites of the SNC (ie …

A review of volatiles in the Martian interior
J Filiberto, D Baratoux, D Beaty… - … & Planetary Science, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Multiple observations from missions to Mars have revealed compelling evidence for a
volatile‐rich Martian crust. A leading theory contends that eruption of basaltic magmas was …

InSight constraints on the global character of the Martian crust
MA Wieczorek, A Broquet… - Journal of …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Analyses of seismic data from the InSight mission have provided the first in situ constraints
on the thickness of the crust of Mars. These crustal thickness constraints are currently limited …

A reduced organic carbon component in martian basalts
The source and nature of carbon on Mars have been a subject of intense speculation. We
report the results of confocal Raman imaging spectroscopy on 11 martian meteorites …

Heterogeneous distribution of H2O in the Martian interior: Implications for the abundance of H2O in depleted and enriched mantle sources
FM McCubbin, JW Boyce, P Srinivasan… - … & Planetary Science, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
We conducted a petrologic study of apatite within 12 Martian meteorites, including 11
shergottites and one basaltic regolith breccia. These data were combined with previously …

Origin of water and mantle–crust interactions on Mars inferred from hydrogen isotopes and volatile element abundances of olivine-hosted melt inclusions of primitive …
Volatile elements have influenced the differentiation and eruptive behavior of Martian
magmas and played an important role in the evolution of Martian climate and near-surface …
