Performances of ground penetrating radars in arid volcanic regions: Consequences for Mars subsurface exploration

A GPR field experiment in the Republic of Djibouti provides evidence for very low radar penetration in arid volcanic materials, in the range 100–500 MHz. This phenomenon is attributed to the high iron oxide and evaporite concentration in soils, which significantly increases the conductivity, thus le...
