Sediment transport by boiling seeping water: exploring effects of grainsize and atmospheric conditions

Résumé

Many active and recently active surface processes on Mars have been controversially linked to the action of liquid water, yet the sediment transport capacity of water under martian environmental conditions is poorly understood. An understanding of the sediment transport capacity allows the amount of water required for any given landform to be back-calculated from its observed size/volume at the martian surface. Here we present a series of experiments where we explore the effects of grainsize, atmospheric pressure, humidity and temperature on the sediment transport capacity of seeping liquid water under martian conditions.
