Mars Exploration Rover Athena Panoramic Camera (Pancam) investigation (2003, background): “…rather than science potential, both missions ultimately provided a substantial wealth of new information about the surface of Mars, including more than 1400 images of the two landing sites [e.g., Mutch et al., 1976; Pollack et al., 1979; Carr, 1981; Sharp and Malin, 1984; Arvidson et al., 1989].”
Juvenile Chemical Sediments and the Long Term Persistence of Water at the Surface of Mars (2009, background): “and sediment, as well as by heat flux, which, for Mars, is known to have reached a maximum during the Noachian and subsequently declined (McGovern et al., 2002; Carr, 2007).”
Geologic Constraints on Early Mars Climate (2018, background): “The new geologic target is no longer “how could Mars be warm enough for lakes?” (Squyres 1989; Carr 2006) but instead “what mechanisms best explain the trends, rhythms and aberrations in Early Mars climate that are recorded by Mars’ geology?” There are also new estimates of paleo-atmospheric pressur”
