At @CUBoulder, Emiratis and Americans are working side-by-side on scientific discoveries that are out of this world 🪐.
On #IDWGS, learn from @PlanetaryNoora as she shares her experience at CU & the support she received from her professors: bit.ly/50Faces_Alsaeed

@CaptainKirkLong I'm not the one featured on the university social media for being a cool professor 👀👀

Just another friendly PSA that it snows on Mars and it's really cool (pun intended)
LASP@LASPatCU
There's snow on Mars. You likely couldn't ski on it, but you might be able to snowshoe. Read more in @TheAtlantic featuring LASP researchers @PlanetaryNoora and @phayne. theatlantic.com/science/archiv…

@CaptainKirkLong @ThreeBodyBot You did it! Did u end up switching to unity or nah?

Did you know that it snows CO2 ice on Mars?? And that it can scavenge water ice from the atmosphere in the process??
I wrote a paper with @phayne about this phenomenon, check it out!
JGR-Planets@jgrplanets
Transport of Water Into the Polar Regions of Mars Through Scavenging by CO2 Snowfall doi.org/10.1029/2022JE… Water ice in the atmosphere acts as a seed onto which the CO2 ice condenses, forming CO2 snow clouds. When that snow falls, it removes water from the atmosphere.

@BritCoopz Oh nice I didn't know they were spotlighting it!

To add to the joy of defending last week, my new paper with @phayne on the scavenging of water by CO2 snowfall at the Martian poles is out now: doi.org/10.1029/2022JE…
TL;DR CO2 snowfall may be an important mechanism for water ice transport in the polar regions of Mars!

@PlanetaryNoora What a cool paper!!!
Also congratulations on defending!

On the heels of her successful PhD defense, @PlanetaryNoora and I have a new paper out on the role of "scavenging" by CO2 snow in the water cycle on Mars:

Snowfall may play a key role in when and where ice accumulates at the poles of the red planet.

Last week I successfully defended my PhD in astrophysical and planetary sciences @CUBoulder on the topic of the Martian Water Cycle.
I couldn't have asked for better advisors than @phayne and Bruce Jakosky.
Feels surreal to be Dr. Noora Alsaeed.
