Basalts and basaltic cumulates from Mars (delivered to Earth as meteorites) carry a record of
the history of that planet–from accretion to initial differentiation and subsequent volcanism …

Lacking plate tectonics and crustal recycling, the long-term evolution of the crust-mantle
system of Mars is driven by mantle convection, partial melting, and silicate differentiation …

Comparing compositional models of the terrestrial planets provides insights into
physicochemical processes that produced planet-scale similarities and differences. The …

Martian meteorites are the only direct samples from Mars, thus far. Currently, there are a total
of 262 individual samples originating from at least 11 ejection events. Geochemical …

The Máaz formation consists of the first lithologies in Jezero crater analyzed by the Mars
2020 Perseverance rover. This formation, investigated from Sols (Martian days) 1 to 201 and …

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 …

Fe2+–Mg partitioning between olivine and basaltic melt, expressed by the exchange
coefficient, KDol–meltFe–Mg [=(XmeltMg/XolivineMg)/(XmeltFe2+/XolivineFe2+)] is widely …

The abundance and distribution of water within Mars through time plays a fundamental role
in constraining its geological evolution and habitability. The isotopic composition of Martian …

The timing and mode of deposition for Martian regolith breccia Northwest Africa (NWA) 7034
were determined by combining petrography, shape analysis, and thermochronology. NWA …

Fluvial landforms on Mars suggest that it was once warm enough to maintain persistent
liquid water on its surface. The transition to the present cold and dry Mars is closely linked to …
