([email protected]) ABSTRACT Data from orbiting and landed spacecraft have provided vast amounts of information regarding fluvial and fluvial-related landforms and sediments on Mars. One variant of these landforms are sinuous ridges that have been interpreted to be remnant evidence for ancient fluvial activity, observed at hundreds of martian locales. In order to further understanding of these martian landforms, this paper inventories the 107 known and unknown inverted channel sites on Earth; these offer 114 different examples that consist of materials ranging in age from Upper Ordovician to late Holocene. These examples record several climatic events from the Upper Ordovician glaciation to late Quaternary climate oscillation. These Earth examples include inverted channels in deltaic and alluvial fan sediment, providing new analogs to their martian counterparts. This global

  • Mars: Life, Subglacial Oceans, Abiogenic Photosynthesis, Seasonal Increases and Replenishment of Atmospheric Oxygen
    Open Astron. 2020; 29: 189–209 Review Article Rhawn G. Joseph*, Natalia S. Duxbury, Giora J. Kidron, Carl H. Gibson, and Rudolph Schild Mars: Life, Subglacial Oceans, Abiogenic Photosynthesis, Seasonal Increases and Replenishment of Atmospheric Oxygen https://doi.org/10.1515/astro-2020-0020 Received Sep 3, 2020; peer reviewed and revised; accepted Oct 12, 2020 Abstract: The discovery and subsequent investigations of atmospheric oxygen on Mars are reviewed. Free oxygen is a biomarker produced by photosynthesizing organisms. Oxygen is reactive and on Mars may be destroyed in 10 years and is continually replenished. Diurnal and spring/summer increases in oxygen have been documented, and these variations parallel biologically induced fluctuations on Earth. Data from the Viking biological experiments also support active biology, though these results have been disputed. Although there is no conclusive proof of current or past life on Mars, organic matter has been detected and specimens resembling green algae / cyanobacteria, lichens, stromatolites, and open apertures and fenestrae for the venting of oxygen produced via photosynthesis have been observed. These life-like specimens include thousands of lichen-mushroom-shaped structures with thin stems, attached to rocks, topped by bulbous caps, and oriented skyward similar to photosynthesizing organisms. If these specimens are living, fossilized or abiogenic is unknown. If biological, they may be producing and replenishing atmospheric oxygen. Abiogenic processes might also contribute to oxygenation via sublimation and seasonal melting of subglacial water-ice deposits coupled with UV splitting of water molecules; a process of abiogenic photosynthesis that could have significantly depleted oceans of water and subsurface ice over the last 4.5 billion years.

Quantan-Nataf 5, 1The Open Universi- ty, Walton Hall, Milton Keynes MK77EA United Kingdom ([email protected]), 2University of Leicester, 3The Natural History Museum, 4Imperial College London, 5Université de Lyon. Introduction: Oxia Planum will be the landing site site region from the south, and from Coogoon Valles to for the European Space Agency’s 2020 ExoMars the southeast. We compare a hydrological model of the program rover. With the primary goal of searching for modern topography with geomorphological indicators signs of past and present life on Mars, the ExoMars of ancient fluvial activity visible in remote sensing data rover will investigate the geochemical environment in to understand: (1) The size of the Oxia Basin the shallow subsurface over a nominal mission of 218 catchment, (2) geomorphological evidence for a variety martian days (sols) [1]. To meet this ambitious mission of hydrological settings and processes and (3) how the goal, and for the results of the geochemical catchment may have changed though martian history. experiments to be meaningful, it is crucial to These observation are important because understand the context of the landing site as a whole, biomarkers may have formed in the catchment and and to consider the geological processes that might transported into the landing site. It is therefore affect the potential for the formation, concentration and important to know where biomarkers could have preservation of biomarkers within strata exposed in the formed and how and when they may have been landing ellipse.
