Amazonian chemical weathering rate derived from stony meteorite finds at Meridiani Planum on Mars

Little is known about the impacts of Mars’ contemporary dryness on weathering processes. Here, using iron oxidation estimates from the Mars Rover Opportunity, the authors quantify chemical weathering rates for Mars, finding appreciably slower rates compared with the lowest values on Earth.
