Persistence of paleo-rivers featured across the board!

March 28, 2019

recent paper led by Prof. Edwin Kite and co-authored by former Dept. member Gaia Stucky de Quay found that intense precipitation-fed runoff was a global phenomenon on Mars for over a billion years. The study has made quite a journalistic splash, featured so far in eight online publications, certainly with more to come.

Congratulations Prof. Kite & Dr. de Quay!
