JULIANNE I. MOSES Associate Staff Scientist

RESEARCH FOCUS — My primary research focus is on theoretical investigations of physical and chemical processes in planetary and satellite atmospheres, with a particular emphasis on photochemical modeling, aerosol formation and microphysics, and atmosphere-surface interactions. I am currently working on models of photochemistry and haze production on Jupiter, Saturn, extrasolar giant planets (e.g., HD209458b and Jovian-mass planets at varying distances from their central stars), and brown dwarfs (e.g., Gliese 229b). The Jupiter, Saturn, and Gl 229b models will be compared with various observational data from ISO, SWAS, groundbased infrared (e.g., TEXES/IRTF), and Cassini CIRS (when public). The extrasolar giant planet models will be used to make predictions and recommendations for future missions like NASA’s Terrestrial Planet Finder.

PAUL MICHAEL SCHENK Staff Scientist

RESEARCH FOCUS — My research objectives include focused investigations of geologic problems on the icy satellites of the outer planets. Chief among these is the study of the distribution and morphology of impact crater as probes of the properties and surface ages of icy satellite interiors. In addition, I am working on volcanic resurfacing and mountain formation on planetary satellites, focusing primarily on mapping and characterizing landforms and extracting observational constraints (e.g., slopes) on physical emplacement. One of the principal tools I have been developing and using is digital topographic mapping (based on spacecraft stereo observations and photoclinometry) in support of these investigations.

ALLAN H. TREIMAN Senior Staff Scientist

RESEARCH FOCUS — Treiman’s research emphasizes the geochemistry and geology of Mars as related to the Martian meteorites. Within this broad topic, studies focus on igneous processes and on volatile components (especially as relate to water). The limitations of the Martian meteorites themselves have led to investigations analogous structures and processes seen in Earth rocks and in other meteorites. A side-emphasis is photogeology/geomorphology of Mars as related to water in the regolith (and thence to alterations seen in the Martian meteorites).

Whilst in Exxon I received extensive management training through their internal company programs. I have considerable experience of administration and project management within the Australian public service system and have received extensive training through the Monash, Mt. Eliza Business School (Monash University, Melbourne, Australia). During the course of my work at AGSO I interacted extensively with both petroleum and mineral companies. I also have considerable experience in raising research funds from both government and industry sources in Australia and the United States. RESEARCH EXPERIENCE I am the author of more than 160 scientific publications, a major text book and chapters in several further text books (see publication list). My early career (1964 -1969) involved research in polar regions in both the Arctic (Alaska and The Yukon) and Antarctic (Central Transantarctic Mountains). My research interested then focussed upon understanding modern glaciation and its ancient record.

In 1969 I joined the Apollo Program with NASA at the Johnson Space Center in Houston and spent much of the next nine years involved in lunar mission work and in research into the accumulation of clastic rocks on the lunar surface. I participated in the training of the Apollo astronauts and mission planning as well as developing my own research program on lunar rocks, in particular impact generated clastic rocks. I also organized and led the first Mars analogue expedition to the Antarctic Dry Valleys (Viking Program). As a consequence I have a broad perspective on planetary environmental processes. My experience with NASA was followed by marine research, mostly involving passive margin settings, with the University of Texas. Subsequently, six years in middle management with Exxon (1978–1984) provided me with a broad experience of the petroleum industry in the offshore environment. I am a very experienced basin analyst and seismic and well-log interpreter. At the Australian Geological Survey Organisation (1984 -1999) my research focused on intracratonic onshore basinal settings and attempting to understand the relationship between sedimentary basins and crust/mantle interaction and the plate tectonics cycle. Along with my work on intracratonic basinal settings I have taken an active part in the UNESCO based International Geological Correlation Program (IGCP) developing global correlations for the Proterozoic. I have extensive experience with stable isotope stratigraphy. My most recent research has involved the Archean and the search for the earliest evidence of life on earth. This work developed as a result of my basin analysis program at AGSO and has continued during my tenure at ANU and as an NRC Associate. The ultimate objective of this work is to develop an understanding of the potential nature of life in the universe and help develop the tools necessary to search for life on other planets. In the course of my career I have worked on all seven continents including field programs in the following areas: Australia (New England Fold Belt, Amadeus Basin, Officer Basin, Georgina Basin, Ngalia Basin, Daly Basin, Canning Basin, Mount Isa Basin, McArthur Basin, Clarence-Moreton Basin, Hamersley Basin, Cooper Basin, The Pilbara, The Kimberley), Asia (Yangtze Platform, Dzabkhan Basin - Western Mongolia), Europe (Southern UK, North Sea, Ural Mountains); Africa (Barberton Mountains, Nama Basin), South America (Parana Basin, Brazil), Antarctica (Transantarctic Mountains), North America (Utah, Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean, Alaska, The Yukon, southern Canada). CURRENT RESEARCH The focus of my present work, carried out as a cooperative program with Oxford University (Martin Brasier) and the Carnegie Institution (Doug Rumble, Andrew Steele), is based upon the use of stable isotopes as a means for understanding the early biosphere. Isotopes, especially the stable isotopes of carbon and sulfur, provide insights into the state of the biosphere and in particular the interaction between the atmosphere and hydrosphere. The work focuses on developing a well constrained isotopic history tied to planetary evolution. As a consequence we place considerable emphasis on understanding the architecture of the sedimentary succession in which the isotopic record is preserved, without this constraint the isotopic data are of little value. Our long term objective is to develop this technique as a means for detecting extraterrestrial life. Isotopes provide a subtle and enduring record of biospheric activity and should provide one of the best techniques for testing for extraterrestrial biospheric activity – ancient or modern. Our work suggests that hydrothermal processes dominated the early Archean environment and that their geochemistry emulates and overwhelms the early biospheric signature. The work casts considerable doubt on claims for evidence for early Archean life on Earth and suggests that at total reworking of the Early Archean, and especially the approach to stable isotopes, is needed. In parallel with this work we are developing tools for planetary exploration – the MASSE project (Microarray Assay for Solar System Exploration). These tools will ultimately be used on unmanned and eventually manned flights to the planets. The objective is to develop a tool that is both small and extremely sensitive. To that end we have assembled a team to which will use the sensitivity of the best life detecting system available mammalian immune system which has evolved over many millions of years. We are currently attaching highly resistant small molecules that are distinctive of biogenic hydrocarbon (e.g., hopanes and steranes) to large proteins which will then be used to produce immune reactions in mice . Antigens isolated from this work will be used in a microarray

78

system. Sensitivities of one part in 1012 are theoretically possible. Ultimately, golf ball size or handheld tools will be developed that will allow tests using several thousand antigens to be carried out in minutes. The tools will test simultaneously for terrestrial and human contamination as well as for extraterrestrial life signs. Immune system work is now under way and is proving successful. Preliminary low and zero gravity testing has been carried out on the fluidics system in parabolic flights proving the effectiveness of the system. Field tests will be carried out on ancient rocks on the Pilbara to help define the prebiotic/biotic boundary. Engineering for unmanned exploration is in progress.
