New Mars research review tells story of the red planet's atmosphere evolution

Mars is one of the most studied planets in our solar system, second only to Earth. Signs point to the red planet once existing as a habitable world like our own, mustering intense fascination from scientists to understand the history of Mars' environment and how it came to its present state. For the first time, Mason's Dr. Erdal Yiğit, associate professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy pulled these studies together in a single review to reveal Martian whole atmosphere couplings and interactions.
