Spectral Constraints on the Composition of Active Slope Streaks on Mars
WHISPERS（2010）
Abstract
The formation of low-albedo slope streaks represents one of the most active surface processes presently observed on Mars. Ongoing debate about the origin of such streaks centers on whether they are the products of: 1) erosional processes related to ‘dry’ mass-wasting exposing a dark-toned substrate beneath a thin dust mantle; or 2) ‘wet’ processes associated with liquid seeps. Here, we employ hyperspectral CRISM images to determine the spectral properties of individual slope streaks, constrain their composition, and test possible formation mechanisms. Our results demonstrate that the slope streaks analyzed here form a spectrally distinct and compositionally unique class of active Martian surface features. Darkening through exposure of a pre-existing substrate, textural effects and/or persistent soil moisture are all unambiguously ruled out by the spectral observations, which instead point towards a transparent surface coating or enrichment in low-albedo ferric oxides as the most likely and spectrally permissible mechanisms.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
