Repository: Evidence of Exposed Dusty Water Ice within Martian Gullies

Dataset

Description

This repository contains: 1. Calculated spectra of snow-dust mixtures from Khuller and Christensen (2020) 2. Measured spectra of ice and soil from Blaney et al. (2009) 3. Refractive indices of martian dust from Wolff et al. (2009) 4. Effective thermal conductivities of martian snow and ice, based on Clow (1987). 5. Image details of HiRISE, CTX and THEMIS images analyzed in this work. 6. Supplementary Animations (1-3) of changes observed within gully seen in HiRISE images ESP_013067_1470 and ESP_065800_1470 References: Blaney, D.
