Description

Ices in the Solar System: A Volatile-Driven Journey from the Inner Solar System to Its Far Reaches explores the origins, evolution and distribution of various ice species throughout the solar system.

Geographically, the book’s focus on ice(s) migrates outwardly from Mercury, the Earth and the Moon, Mars, then Ceres and other volatile-rich small bodies; it carries on with the moons of Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus, followed by Pluto and other Kuiper Belt/Trans-Neptunian objects.

Conceptually and empirically, the book depicts the often-enigmatic narratives of the different ice species (H2O, CO2, CH4, etc.) in the solar system and examines their interaction with a wide range of surface, near-subsurface, interior and atmospheric processes.
