Physics

Scientific paper

We report on dynamical phenomena occurring during northern spring on Mars: the formation of a water ice layer above seasonal CO2-rich ice and selective removing of this water ice layer by katabatic winds in spiral troughs and geysers on the circumpolar dark dunes. It may lead to inhomogeneous accumulation rates of water ice over the North permanent cap.
