Spatial and Temporal Variation of Mars South Polar Ice Composition From Spectral Endmember Classification of CRISM Mapping Data

S. F. A. Cartwright,

et al.

Abstract: Multispectral mapping data from the Compact Reconnaissance Imaging Spectrometer for Mars (CRISM) provide a unique opportunity to characterize south polar ice deposits at higher spectral sampling, spatial resolution, or spatiotemporal coverage than previous work. This new perspective can help constrain the nature and distribution of different mixtures of CO2 ice, H2O ice, and dust that influence the formation, evolution, and preservation of Mars climate records. We processed 1,103 CRISM observations spanning th… Show more

“…Some examples may be the appearance of new gullies [2] or the mutations in their path, in some cases attributed to the periodic melting of the permafrost [7] and in other cases to the sliding of ice in spring [11]. Important processes also affect the circumpolar and polar regions: seasonal frosting/defrosting and clear albedo changes [12] and dark albedo changes on polar dunes [13].…”
