Remote sensing survey of altiplano-puna volcanic complex rocks and minerals for planetary analog use
(MDPI, 2022)
The Altiplano-Puna Volcanic Complex (APVC) of the Central Andes is an arid region with extensive volcanism, possessing various geological features comparable to those of other solar system objects. The unique features of ...
Detection and Preservation of Biosignatures in Mars Analogs Hot Spring Deposits from the Taupo Volcanic Zone, New Zealand
(EPSC, 2020)
Characterizing the preservation potential of biosignatures in martian analogs is essential in the quest for biosignatures with martian rovers. Hot spring silica deposits are part of the minerals with a high preservation ...
Extreme salinity as a challenge to grow potatoes under Mars-like soil conditions: targeting promising genotypes
(Cambridge University Press, 2017-11-16)
One of the future challenges to produce food in a Mars environment will be the optimization of resources through the potential use of the Martian substratum for growing crops as a part of bioregenerative food systems. In ...
Inhabited subsurface wet smectites in the hyperarid core of the Atacama Desert as an analog for the search for life on Mars
(Nature Research, 2020-12-01)
The modern Martian surface is unlikely to be habitable due to its extreme aridity among other environmental factors. This is the reason why the hyperarid core of the Atacama Desert has been studied as an analog for the ...
