Mars' volatile and climate history
BM Jakosky, RJ Phillips - nature, 2001 - nature.com
There is substantial evidence that the martian volatile inventory and climate have changed
markedly throughout the planet's history. Clues come from areas as disparate as the history …

A younger age for ALH84001 and its geochemical link to shergottite sources in Mars
Martian meteorite ALH84001 (ALH) is the oldest known igneous rock from Mars and has
been used to constrain its early history. Lutetium-hafnium (Lu-Hf) isotope data for ALH …

Alteration assemblages in Martian meteorites: Implications for near-surface processes
Abstract The SNC (Shergotty-Nakhla-Chassigny) meteorites have recorded interactions
between martian crustal fluids and the parent igneous rocks. The resultant secondary …

Cataclysmic bombardment throughout the inner solar system 3.9–4.0 Ga
DA Kring, BA Cohen - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2002 - Wiley Online Library
Cohen et al.[2000] recently confirmed the hypothesis that the Moon was resurfaced by an
intense period of impact cratering∼ 3.9 Ga ago and, by inference, that the Earth also …

K-Ar and Ar-Ar dating
S Kelley - Reviews in Mineralogy and Geochemistry, 2002 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
The aim of this chapter is to present the K-Ar and Ar-Ar dating techniques in the context of
noble gas studies, since there are already several recent texts on K-Ar and Ar-Ar dating …

Paleomagnetic evidence for a long-lived, potentially reversing martian dynamo at~ 3.9 Ga
The 4.1-billion-year-old meteorite Allan Hills 84001 (ALH 84001) may preserve a magnetic
record of the extinct martian dynamo. However, previous paleomagnetic studies have …
