Evidence for Aqueously Precipitated Sulfates in Northeast Meridiani Using THEMIS and TES DataRecently aqueously deposited sulfate-rich bedrock was found at the MER-B Meridiani landing site [1]. Additional sulfate was observed from orbit by the Mars Express OMEGA instrument [2]. In this work, I present midinfrared spectral evidence (using THEMIS and TES) for sulfate in and around a channel deposit that lies to the northeast of the hematite- strewn plains of Meridiani at approx.2degN, 1degW (Fig. 1).
