    Northern Midlatitude Ice Exposed in Craters on Mars

    Mars potentially contains a vast reservoir of buried water ice resources. Understanding the distribution and origins of these resources has become increasingly important due to the plans for a future manned mission to Mars. The northern mid latitude region of Mars is a prime candidate for future landing sites and has a widespread presence of ice. In this study, two northern mid latitude craters are analyzed; one of the craters has a confirmed ice exposing scarp, while the other does not. Analysis of temperature, thermal inertia, multispectral imaging, and geologic features have led to the conclusion that the non-confirmed crater does have ice exposing scarps. In depth multispectral imaging from the Compact Reconnaissance Imaging Spectrometer provides data for analysis that reveals exposed nearly pure water ice in Crater 1, and a mixture of water and carbon dioxide ice in Crater 2. Crater Size Frequency Distribution plots suggest that Crater 1 is about 100 million years old. This crater is interpreted to be much older due to active resurfacing from sublimation thermokarst features. The subsurface ice layer is believed to be much older than the craters exposing it. It is likely that the ice sheets were initially deposited from ancient snow that compacted to form glaciers. Recent Mars axis changes in obliquity have led to modifications of the ice sheets both laterally and horizontally

    Factors Militating Against Effective Implementation of the 6-3-3-4 Education Policy in Nigeria: A Case Study in Policy Failure

    Get PDF
    This paper is on the factors militating against effective implementation of the 6-3-3-4 education policy in Nigeria, using Esan North East Local Government Area of Edo State as a case study. Its objective was to find out factors that militated against the effective implementation of the policy. To achieve this objective, ten (10) schools were randomly selected in the local government area. This study adopted the survey method and structured questionnaire were administered in eliciting information from the respondents and fifteen respondents were selected from each of the ten schools. The technique of data analysis was simple percentage. The findings revealed that lack of manpower, lack of equipment, inadequate guidance and counseling procedure, absence of legislation, etc were the bane of the implementation of the 6-3-3-4 education policy. Based on the result, the study draws the conclusion that the policy itself was not bad, but failed as a result of poor implementation. On this basis, the study recommends that for the 6-3-3-4 system to succeed, there is need for gradual and systematic approach towards the implementation of the policy and also ensure that the goals and objectives set be periodically evaluated to create opportunity for innovations aimed at solving the emerging problems and so on. This will ensure a better standard of education in Nigeria.Keywords: Policy, Public Policy, Implementation, Vocation, Skills, Curriculum, Innovation, Educatio
