Abstract:
Radar reflections can be caused by contrasts in either dielectric permittivity or electric conductivity Reflections observed by Mars Advanced Radar for Subsurface and Ionosphere Sounding (MARSIS) at Mars' south polar region can be explained by contrasts in electric conductivity and do not require liquid water We propose that a polar‐ice substrate containing clays, other conductive minerals, or saline ice are the most plausible candidate materials
