If the two polar ice caps on Mars' surface were to be melted, it would release enough water to cover the entire planet with approximately 11 meters of water.

Is there presence of water oxygen on mars?
There is ice beneath the surface of Mara and at its polar caps. The atmosphere contains small amounts of oxygen.
Where is water on Mars?
Water exists in its solid state in the ice caps. It is believed that liquid water exists beneath the surface. Formation of carbonates -Including globules
What Evidence that mars has water?
The robots sent to Mars have found Water Ice in large quantities on the surface of Mars.
What was detected by Mars odyssey when it landed on Mars in 2002?
Large quantities of water ice close to the surface
What forms of water is found on mars or its moons?
Mars is to cold to have water. Plus its atmosphere is to thin. Yes, but Mars does seem to have water ice at its poles. Also there is probably water under the surface, again in the form of ice.

Do planets have water?
Some do. Earth is the only planet known to have liquid water. Mars has ice at its poles and beneath its surface in some places.

Is there ice on planet mars?
Yes, there has been enormous quantities of ice discovered just under the surface of Mars as of 2002.
Does Mars and Venus have water?
Venus: Not much at all. Mars : Quite a bit in the form of ice, near the poles. Also probably some under the surface.
What Evidence that mars has water?
The robots sent to Mars have found Water Ice in large quantities on the surface of Mars.
Where is the water on Mars?
There is no liquid water on Mars. Ice is present at the polar ice caps and in some places below the surface sediment.
What is the surface on Mars?
the surface on jupiter is that it has no surface at all
Are there swamps in Mars?
No. For two reasons: # The temperature on the Martian surface is less than 0 Celsius and thus any water (to form a swamp) would be in the form of ice and therefore solid. # The atmospheric pressure on Mars is so low that water can not exist at the surface. If you place a lump of ice on Mars and heated it, it would go straight form solid Ice to water vapor. Thus this again means that there can be no water on the surface of mars with which to form a wet swamp. However, having said this please understand that there is H2O on Mars in the form of ICE and water vapor - we do not know how much H2O there is at the moment and we believe that there was quite allot of liquid water on Mars' surface in the ancient past.
What planet that has water ice in polar ice caps and near the surface of the planet?
Mars and Earth.
What was detected by Mars odyssey when it landed on Mars in 2002?
Large quantities of water ice close to the surface
Which planets have ice?
There are a few planets which have ice. Earth has ice. Mars is believed to contain ice far underneath its surface. Pluto which is no longer classified as a planet has a surface which is completely frozen.
