Differential scanning calorimetry indicates that adsorbed water and goethite, a product of hydrated ilmenite, are thermally stable over geologic time in the lunar polar regions. Adsorbed water can undergo burial as a result of several mechanisms, thereby achieving protection from sputtering or Lyman

Subsurface water ice on Mars evolves due to exchange of vapor with the atmosphere, in the form of loss of ice to the atmosphere or in the form of the growth of interstitial ice. Described here is an accelerated numerical method for the long-term evolution of subsurface ice. This accelerated method i

It is investigated whether conditions for melting can be temporarily created in the upper sub-surface parts of snow/ice-packs on Mars at subzero surface temperatures by means of the solid-state greenhouse effect, as occurs in snow-and ice-covered regions on Earth. The conditions for this possible te

Understanding the density evolution of any ice deposits on the martian north polar residual cap is key to understanding whether the cap contains a climate record in the form of occluded samples of past atmospheres. We present a physical model for densification of water ice deposits on the cap due to
