"Mars' Snowfall: Unveiling the Mysteries of the Red Planet's Wintry Weather"

Researchers studying the change in snowfall at the Martian north pole have found that there may be more snow in the winter and less in the spring than previously thought. Martian snowfall includes CO2 snow and is influenced by phenomena such as sublimation and evaporation. Katabatic winds on Mars are stronger and affect larger regions than on Earth. The accumulation of snow and ice on Mars is similar to Earth in some ways, but with differences due to the planet's thin atmosphere. The study suggests that snowfall on Mars may be more frequent and violent than previously believed, with peak accumulation reaching close to a meter in winter. Further study of snow and ice depth on Mars may provide insights into the planet's internal processes.
