Mars has probably lost to space a large part of its initial inventory of water and carbon dioxide (Jakosky et al., 2018) in addition to water trapped in hydrated minerals (Scheller et al., 2021). Indeed, the scars left at the surface by a previously widespread and active liquid water cycle (Carr, 1987) imply that massive amounts of water and carbon dioxide have disappeared from the planet over the ages, consequently making the presumably warm and wet primitive climate progressively transition during the last 3 billion years to the cold, and hyper arid climate that prevails nowadays.Several studies conducted in the last decades have tried to unveil the main cause of the demise of primordial Martian water. The studies considered that a simple and still active loss mechanism is maintained indirectly by the
