Summary edit

Description
English: This graph shows the phase diagram for pure water. Superimposed is the approximate field describing conditions at the surface of modern Mars. The highest pressures are found in the bottom of Hellas Crater (14mbar); the lowest at the top of Olympus Mons (0.7mbar). The minimum temperatures are buffered by the frost point of carbon dioxide at 150K. Temperatures can only exceed 273K in the upper few millimeters of dark soils on the few days around summer solstice. Diagram is after and uses data from Carr, M.H., 2006, The Surface of Mars, Cambridge University Press, 307 p.
