Regolith Volatiles

Regolith Volatiles is a scientific construct that denotes the collective suite of chemical elements and compounds—such as water, carbon dioxide, and noble gases—present in planetary regolith that exhibit low sublimation or vaporization temperatures under ambient conditions, thereby distinguishing them from refractory components by their phase behavior and potential for mobilization in space environments.
