• Context Camera Investigation on board the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (2007, background): “[15] A few hypotheses for the origin of the gullies center on release of subsurface CO2 [Musselwhite et al., 2001; Hoffman, 2002]; Stewart and Nimmo [2002] considered it unlikely that sufficient quantities of CO2 could be trapped beneath the surface.”
• Long-term monitoring of martian gully formation and evolution with MRO/HiRISE (2015, background): “Proposed water-free formation processes include dry mass wasting (Treiman, 2003; Shinbrot et al., 2004), liquid CO2 aquifers (Musselwhite et al., 2001), and avalanching or sublimation of seasonal CO2 frost (Hoffman, 2002; Ishii and Sasaki, 2004; Balme et al., 2006; Cedillo-Flores et al., 2011).”
