The Upper Bound for CO2 Transport on Iapetus: Narrowing in on the Nature of CO2 in the Dark Material
Abstract
We modeled the loss rate of a hypothetical CO2 polar cap on Iapetus in order to determine the upper bound flux of CO2 entering the polar systems. Our model narrowed the potential candidates for the nature of CO2 in the dark material.
