• Geologic Constraints on Early Mars Climate (2018, background): “All three rovers found that at least some early Mars sedimentary rocks experienced acid alteration (Hurowitz & McLennan 2007, Hurowitz et al. 2006, Ming 2006, Hurowitz et al. 2010, Berger et al. 2017, Rampe et al. 2017).”
• The Sedimentary Rock Record of Mars: Distribution, Origins, and Global Stratigraphy (2012, background): “The presence of ferric sulfates (i.e., jarosite) in the rocks of Meridiani Planum indicates interaction with or deposition by acidic fluids, where the acidity may have been generated by the oxidation of Fe(II)-rich water as it emerged from the subsurface (Hurowitz et al. 2010).”
• Subsurface water and clay mineral formation during the early history of Mars (2011, background): “Oxidation and hydrolysis of iron( ii ) drive waters in contact with Mars’s atmosphere to acidic p”
