Following a brief overview of the mission concepts for a Mars Global Network Mission as of the time of the workshop, we present the principal scientific objectives to be achieved by a Mars seismic network. We review the ...

The scientific highlights of the Mars: Evolution of its Climate and Atmosphere (MECA) study project are reviewed and some of the important issues in Martian climate research that remain unresolved are discussed.

The goals of the workshop were to define the scientific objectives and the resulting performance requirements of a potential Space Station facility and to identify the major elements of a coherent development program that ...

Various topics relevant to crustal genesis, especially the relationship between Archean low - and high-grade terrains, were discussed. The central Superior Province of the Canadian Shield was studied.

The planetary science community described instrumentation needed for missions that may go into development during the next 5 to 10 years. Then the DoD community to informed their counterparts in planetary science about ...

The workshop recognized three prime functions of meteorite stranding surfaces. They provide: A proxy record of climatic change (that is, a long record of climatic change is probably preserved in the exposed ice stratigraphy); ...

The purpose of the Workshop on Luminescence Techniques was threefold: (1) to review the state-of-the-art capabilities of luminescence methods, (2) to consider a variety of concepts for the development of future luminescence ...

Papers presented at the workshop described studies of Martian weathering processes based on results from the Viking mission experiments, remote sensing spectroscopic measurements, studies of the shergottite, nakhlite, and ...

The following general topic areas were used: (1) measured cosmogenic noble gas and radionuclide production rates in meteorite and planetary surface samples; (2) cross-section measurements and simulation experiments; and ...

The known facts, together with new research results are reviewed, in order to examine apparent differences between the Antarctic and non-Antarctic populations.
