      Probably there is no difference. They are both made of the same atoms and have the same properties. Water in Mars is found on frozen form only today, but we recently discovered that the conditions for liquid water did exist on the Red Planet in the past. So maybe Mars even had rivers once. In any case, the water seems to be quite the same as far as we know!
