Detection and Degradation of Adenosine Monophosphate in Perchlorate-Spiked Martian Regolith Analogue, by Deep-Ultraviolet Spectroscopy

Joseph Razzell Hollis et al.

Summary: It has been found that clays are effective preservers of organic material, however, organic biosignatures may be altered under Martian UV exposure. Therefore, this factor needs to be taken into consideration during the Mars 2020 mission.

Comprehensive investigation of Mars methane and organics with ExoMars/NOMAD

Elise W. Knutsen et al.

Summary: A comprehensive search for hydrocarbons in the Martian atmosphere conducted by the ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter/NOMAD instrument from April 2018 to April 2019 did not yield any significant detections of organics, setting new stringent upper limits for global ethane and ethylene at 0.1 ppbv and 0.7 ppbv, respectively. No global background level of methane was observed, with an upper limit of 0.06 ppbv, in agreement with earlier findings. Dedicated searches for localized plumes at over 2000 locations also provided no positive detections, suggesting that methane release events, if they occur, are likely sporadic.

Transient HCl in the atmosphere of Mars

Oleg Korablev et al.

Summary: The first detection of HCl gas on Mars could originate from volcanic degassing or gas-solid reactions. The HCl concentration increased during the global dust storm in 2018 and declined soon after, indicating an exchange between dust and the atmosphere. Understanding the origin and variability of HCl will advance our understanding of martian geo- and photochemistry.

A stringent upper limit of 20 pptv for methane on Mars and constraints on its dispersion outside Gale crater

F. Montmessin et al.

Summary: Efforts to detect methane in the Martian atmosphere have been hindered by dust interference, leading to upper limits on methane detections. While the absence of methane in TGO spectra contradicts previous detections by Curiosity, it also strengthens constraints on the mechanism explaining lower methane abundances.

Day-night differences in Mars methane suggest nighttime containment at Gale crater

Christopher R. Webster et al.

Summary: New measurements of atmospheric methane on Mars show significant day-night differences, with methane accumulating near the surface at night and dropping below detection limits during the day. A large spike in methane detected in June 2019 suggests a fast methane destruction or sequestration mechanism may be at play. These findings provide insights into the dynamics of methane on Mars and the potential sources of planetary micro-seepage.

Probing the Atmospheric Cl Isotopic Ratio on Mars: Implications for Planetary Evolution and Atmospheric Chemistry

Giuliano Liuzzi et al.

Summary: Following the recent detection of HCl in the atmosphere of Mars by ExoMars/Trace Gas Orbiter, this study presents the first measurement of the Cl-37/Cl-35 isotopic ratio in the Martian atmosphere, showing a slight depletion of Cl-37 compared to the Earth standard. The isotopic ratio measured is consistent with surface values, indicating limited processing of Cl reservoirs on Mars since formation. This suggests that the Cl chemistry in the Martian atmosphere has little efficiency in changing the isotopic signature of Cl.

Mars Methane Sources in Northwestern Gale Crater Inferred From Back Trajectory Modeling

Y. Luo et al.

Summary: Inverse Lagrangian modeling techniques were used to identify methane emission regions, revealing that the northwestern crater floor inside Gale crater has the strongest influence on methane detections, while the common upstream regions for all methane spikes outside Gale crater extend northwards.
