Kinetic Modeling of Mineral Sequences on Early Mars Using Fully Open Systems
Abstract
We model the formation of mineral sequences known to exist on Mars considering open system conditions both at the atmosphere-water and water-rock interfaces, and implementing a kinetic approach for the dissolution and precipitation of solid phases.
