Scientific paper

Mariner 9 and Viking Orbiter spacecraft observations have yielded evidence that a geological record for cyclical climate change exists in the polar regions of Mars. Evidence has also recently been found linking the Pleistocene terrestrial climate record to variations in the earth's orbit. The parallelisms between the astronomical theory of the terrestrial ice ages and hypotheses advanced to explain Martian polar stratigraphy are examined, covering such issues in Martian geology as the topography and stratigraphy of Martian polar layered deposits and the photoclinometric determination of the topography of the Martian north polar cap. Also considered were quasi-periodic climate changes on Mars, the Martian great dust storms, the regolith-atmosphere-cap system and climate change, and the related topics of earth geology covering Pleistocene and pre-Pleistocene glaciation.
