Journal ArticleDOI

A habitable fluvio-lacustrine environment at Yellowknife Bay, Gale crater, Mars.

John P. Grotzinger, +71 more
- 24 Jan 2014 - 
TL;DR: The Curiosity rover discovered fine-grained sedimentary rocks, which are inferred to represent an ancient lake and preserve evidence of an environment that would have been suited to support a martian biosphere founded on chemolithoautotrophy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deposition, exhumation, and paleoclimate of an ancient lake deposit, Gale crater, Mars.

TL;DR: The observations suggest that individual lakes were stable on the ancient surface of Mars for 100 to 10,000 years, a minimum duration when each lake was stable both thermally (as liquid water) and in terms of mass balance (with inputs effectively matching evaporation and loss of water to colder regions).
Journal ArticleDOI

Volatile and organic compositions of sedimentary rocks in Yellowknife Bay, Gale crater, Mars.

Douglas W. Ming, +442 more
- 24 Jan 2014 - 
TL;DR: Higher abundances of chlorinated hydrocarbons in the mudstone compared with Rocknest windblown materials previously analyzed by Curiosity suggest that indigenous martian or meteoritic organic carbon sources may be preserved in the Mudstone; however, the carbon source for the chlorinatedHydrocarbons is not definitively of martian origin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Accretion of Mudstone Beds from Migrating Floccule Ripples

TL;DR: Using flume experiments, it is found that the bedload transport and deposition of clay floccules occurs at flow velocities that transport and deposit sand, which suggests an underlying universal process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Capturing Key Attributes of Fine-Grained Sedimentary Rocks In Outcrops, Cores, and Thin Sections: Nomenclature and Description Guidelines

TL;DR: In this article, an integrated nomenclature scheme is proposed to capture the inherent heterogeneity of fine-grained sedimentary rocks at the 102 to 10−3 mm scale and to assist the evaluation of these rocks as sinks of organic carbon, barriers to fluid flows, and reservoirs of oil and gas.
