The Mars Observer laser altimeter investigation
The primary objective of the Mars Observer laser altimeter (MOLA) investigation is to determine globally the topography of Mars at a level suitable for addressing problems in geology and geophysics.… Expand
An improved solution of the gravity field of Mars (GMM‐2B) from Mars Global Surveyor
- F. Lemoine, D. Smith, +4 authors D. Pavlis
- Geology
- 25 October 2001
A spherical harmonic solution of the Mars gravity field to degree and order 80, Goddard Mars Model 2B (GMM-2B), has been developed using X band tracking data of Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) from… Expand
Single-polymer dynamics in steady shear flow.
- D. Smith, H. Babcock, S. Chu
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Science
- 12 March 1999
The conformational dynamics of individual, flexible polymers in steady shear flow were directly observed by the use of video fluorescence microscopy. The probability distribution for the molecular… Expand

Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Overview: The Instrument Suite and Mission
Abstract
NASA’s Lunar Precursor Robotic Program (LPRP), formulated in response to the President’s Vision for Space Exploration, will execute a series of robotic missions that will pave the way for… Expand
Computer simulations of NaCl association in polarizable water
Classical molecular dynamics computer simulations have been used to investigate the thermodynamics and kinetics of sodium chloride association in polarizable water. The simulations make use of the… Expand
The early Holocene sea level rise
- D. Smith, S. Harrison, C. Firth, J. Jordán
- Geology
- 1 July 2011
The causes, anatomy and consequences of the early Holocene sea level rise (EHSLR) are reviewed. The rise, of ca 60m, took place over most of the Earth as the volume of the oceans increased during… Expand
Observations of the north polar region of Mars from the Mars orbiter laser altimeter.
- M. Zuber, D. Smith, +18 authors T. Duxbury
- Geology, Medicine
- Science
- 11 December 1998
Elevations from the Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter (MOLA) have been used to construct a precise topographic map of the martian north polar region. The northern ice cap has a maximum elevation of 3… Expand
Radio science observations with Mars Global Surveyor: Orbit insertion through one Mars year in mapping orbit
