Quantification of the dry history of the Martian soil inferred from in situ microscopy
The particle size distribution (PSD) of a Martian soil sample, a useful indicator of the underlying soil formation processes, has been determined using optical and atomic-force microscopy data acquired by the Phoenix Mars lander. In particular, the presence and fraction of clay-sized particles in th...
