Mars' Volatile and Climate History
B. M. Jakosky, R. J. Phillips July, 2001 Nature v 412, p 237-244
This article from Nature attempts to piece together a coherent view of the evolution of the Martian climate. The authors use analysis of Martian meteorites and measurements from the Mars Global Surveyor in particular, along with surface morphology, composition of the present atmosphere, and the nature of the interactions between the upper atmosphere and the solar winds to constrain the history of the planet's climate. Images, tables and charts support the text.
