Outgassing History and Escape of the Martian Atmosphere and Water Inventory (2015, background): “Concerning data acquired from Earth (Mumma et al. 2009), it has been argued that the coincidence between martian and telluric lines could have led to an erroneous retrieval of the Mars CH4 abundance (Zahnle et al. 2011).”
The Sample Analysis at Mars Investigation and Instrument Suite (2012, background): “The TLS component of SAM will have greater sensitivity than ground-based techniques for atmospheric methane detection, which will address the present controversy arising from remote spectral observations (Zahnle et al. 2011).”
NOMAD, an Integrated Suite of Three Spectrometers for the ExoMars Trace Gas Mission: Technical Description, Science Objectives and Expected Performance (2018, background): “…et al. 2004; Mumma et al. 2009), from space-borne instruments (Fonti and Marzo 2010; Formisano et al. 2004; Geminale et al. 2011), and in-situ (Webster et al. 2015) pose fundamental challenges to our understanding of the chemistry taking place in the Martian atmosphere (Zahnle et al. 2011).”
