NEWS AND NOTES: 1/22/13 Big congratulations to Ezgi Karasozen on her succesful MS defense today! 1/8/13 My GRAIL paper on ancient igneuous intrusions on the Moon is now published in Science. Be sure to check out all three GRAIL papers in this issue. 1/7/13 Our analysis of the volcanic history of Olympus Mons is now published in Earth and Planetary Science Letters. This was the work of undergraduate int erns Ryan Isherwood, JJ Jansen, and Lauren Jozwiak. 12/5/12 See new results from the GRAIL mission in my paper published on-line in Science Express 11/10/12 Check out my new paper in Icarus revealing the origin of the large gravity anomalies in lunar impact basins, available here 10/4/12 Congrats to Yaser Kattoum for his successful MS defense today! 6/29/12 Check out the highlight of my Valles Marineris papers in Science 6/23/12 Congrats to PGL alum Kelsey Zabrusky on the publcation of her first paper, "Reconstructing the the distribution and depositional history of the sedimentary deposits of Arabia Terra, Mars" 6/20/12 The third and final paper in my series on the formation of Valles Marineris is now published: The formation of Valles Marineris - 3 4/28/12 The first two installments of my Tolkien-esque trilogy of papers on the formation of Valles Marineris are now published in JGR-Planets. This trilogy has it all... a mountain of doom (Tharsis), a ring of power (the dichotomy), only the hobbits are missing.      The formation of Valles Marineris - 1      The formation of Valles Marineris - 2       Stay tuned for the final installment... 4/20/12 Check out my paper with MIT student Junlun Li on the density of Mars' south polar layered deposits here 4/14/12 See my Early Mars Conference abstract with post-doc Alejandro Soto on the formation of the Gale Crater sedimentary deposit at the MSL landing site here 4/11/12 See my comments in this Nature News article 4/8/12 See my LPSC talk highlighted on the AGU Blog here 2/6/12 Check out the 2012 LPSC abstracts by our group:     Climate and hydrology of the MSL landing site (J Andrews-Hanna) link     Gravity anomalies of lunar basins (J Andrews-Hanna) link     The South Tharsis Ridge Belt on Mars (E Karasozen) link     Lunar basin ring structures seen in gravity (Y Kattoum) link 12/17/11 Kelsey Zabrusky officially graduated today, becoming the first PGL alumnus. Undergrad researcher Ryan Isherwood also graduated. Congrats Kelsey and Ryan! 6/24/11 Big congratulations to PGL student Kelsey Zabrusky for winning the Dwornik award for best oral presentation at the 2011 Lunar and Planetary Science Conference!

This paper examines the global hydrological evolution of Mars, considering the effects of long-term climate change and forcing driven by the orbital evolution of the planet. See my paper on the hydrology of Mars and the origin of the Meridiani Planum playa deposit in JGR-Planets (link) Congratulations to grad student Kelsey Zabrusky for placing third in the CSM Graduate Student Research Fair poster competition Check out paper with MIT graduate student Alex Evans on erosion in Arabia Terra, Mars < (link) Check out the recent abstracts by our group at the 2010 Lunar and Planetary Science Conference, on the hydrology of Mars (link), the origin of Arabia Terra on Mars (link), and the sedimentary deposits of Arabia Terra (link).
