Our understanding of the Martian atmosphere, terrain and subsurface has continuously evolved over the past couple of decades as a result of a number of successful orbiter and rover missions. This prompts a need to revisit the first holistic review of Martian geomorphology, based on images from the Viking orbiters, by Victor R. Baker in 1981. Several of the interpretations and recommendations based on remote sensing in Baker’s paper are as valid today as they were four decades ago. With an unprecedented focus on Mars exploration in the coming decades, it is important to revisit the advances and prospects in Martian geomorphology research.

了解火星地貌的四个十年：重温贝克的“火星地貌”

由于许多成功的轨道飞行器和漫游车任务，我们对火星大气、地形和地下的理解在过去几十年中不断发展。这促使需要重新审视基于维京轨道飞行器图像的火星地貌的第一次整体审查，由维克多 R. 贝克于 1981 年撰写。贝克论文中基于遥感的一些解释和建议在今天仍然有效四年前。随着未来几十年对火星探索的前所未有的关注，重新审视火星地貌研究的进展和前景非常重要。
