Scientific paper

A quantitative relationship is derived between the effectiveness of an atmospheric greenhouse and that of internal heat flow in producing the morphological differences between early and later Martian terrains. The derived relationship is used for two purposes: (1) to evaluate the relative importance of the atmospheric CO2 greenhouse effect and the internal regolith thermal gradient in producing morphological changes for any value of the heat flow (and conductivity values); and (2) to assess the absolute importance of each for specific values of the heat flow which are thought to be reasonable on independent geophysical grounds.
