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

If the martian south polar cap were composed of solid carbon dioxide, would it be sufficiently stable against collapse under its own weight? This question is examined in the light of new experiments on the creep of solid carbon dioxide and new high-resolution topographic mapping of the south polar c
