* In January of 2004, twin robotic explorers, Spirit and Opportunity, landed on Mars. Expected to last for 90 days, the two rovers explored the Martian surface for nearly two years. Their objective was to search for evidence of ancient water on Mars, and to determine if Mars ever had conditions that would have been suitable for life. Opportunity, landed on Meridiani Planum, a smooth plateau near the Martian equator, coming to rest in a small impact feature named Eagle Crater. After leaving Eagle Crater, Opportunity drove eastward to Endurance Crater, a much larger carter that allowed access to deeper and older rocks. At these locations, Opportunity, found strong evidence for ancient water on Mars. This evidence includes ?blueberries,? small concretions rich in hematite that precipitated from water. Other evidence includes rocks that ware made largely of sulphate salts, deposited when water evaporated, and rocks that preserve ancient ripples that formed billions of years ago as water flowed over sand on Mars. *

* Written by a leading hydraulic and coastal engineer, Engineering Properties and Hydraulic Behavior of Cohesive Sediments presents important fundamental and applied knowledge on the hydrodynamic behavior of fine cohesive sediments. It discusses the criteria for selecting appropriate tests and field measurements along with guidelines for estimating the initiation, degree and rates of erosion and deposition of cohesive sediments, and the properties of aggregates. *
