New spacecraft data provide increasing evidence for a dynamic environment on presentA¢Â�Â�day Mars. Exogenic processes such as impact cratering, mass wasting processes, and active dune migration have all been observed to modify the surface. No traces of current endogenic activity been found yet, but some studies point very localized volcanism in the last few millions years. However, no systematic study young volcanic surfaces had performed so far. We present absolute model age...
Abstract Deep groundwater monitoring in tight bedrock is not commonly performed and rarely documented. For a case study Bochum, NRW, deep wells allow investigation the outcropping Carboniferous down to depth of 186 m. Groundwater was carried out by combining sampling local springs at site. Inverse models were developed using hydrogeochemical code PHREEQC understand natural geochemical processes coal-bearing sandstone. The identified are pyrite oxidation shallow fracture systems Na-Ca/Mg...
Remote sensing images and topographic data, however, show also several clusters of small, low shield volcanoes in Tharsis.These Martian associated landforms morphologic characteristics that are comparable with basaltic volcanic provinces on Earth (Plescia 1981, Hauber et al. 2009).Plains volcanism the eastern Snake River Plain Idaho (USA) can be considered as possibly best terrestrial morphological analogue for this type volcanism.It is defined being an intermediate style between flood...
