Murray Divisionof Geologicaland PlanetarySciences, California Institute of Technology,Pasadena The Tennoskaninstrument on boardthe Phobos '88 spacecraftacquired the highestspatial resolution thermal infraredemission data ever obtained for Mars. Included in thethermal images are 2 km/pixel,midday observations of severalmajor channel and valley systems including significant portions of Shalbatana,Ravi, A1-Qahira,and Ma'adimValles, the channelconnecting Vailes Marineris with HydraotesChaos, and channelmaterial in Eos Chasma.Tennoskan also observed small portions of thesouthern beginnings of Simud,Tiu, andAres Vailes and somechannel material in GangisChasma. Simultaneousbroadband visible reflectance data were obtainedfor all but Ma'adimVallis. We find thatmost of the channelsand valleys have higher thermal inertias than their surroundings,consistent with previousthermal studies. We show for the first time that the thermal inertia boundariesclosely match flat channelfloor boundaries.Also, butteswithin channelshave inertiassimilar to the plainssurrounding the channels,suggesting the buttesare remnants of a contiguousplains surface. Lower bounds ontypical channel thermal inertias range from 8.4 to 12.5(10 -3 cal cm-2 s-1/2 K-I) (352to 523 in SI unitsof J m-2 s-l/2K-l). Lowerbounds on inertia differences with the surrounding heavily cratered plains range from 1.1 to 3.5 (46 to 147 sr). Atmosphericand geometriceffects are not sufficientto causethe observedchannel inertia enhancements.We favornonaeolian explanations of the overall channel inertia enhancements based primarily upon the channelfloors' thermal homogeneity and the strongcorrelation of thermalboundaries with floor boundaries. However,localized, dark regions within some channels are likely aeolian in natureas reported previously.

The study of these landslides provides a test of the hypothesis of processes having affected Martian wallslopes after their formation. The dynamics of Valles Marineris landslides are controversial : either the landslides are interpreted as large debris flows or as dry rock avalanches. Their morphology and their topography are basic parameters to understand their dynamics. From topographic MOLA data and remote sensing images acquired with different spatial resolutions (Viking, THEMIS, MOC), the 3D geometry of 45 landslides of Valles Marineris has been studied.

  • Martian Crater Morphology
    ANALYSIS OF THE DEPTH-DIAMETER RELATIONSHIP OF MARTIAN CRATERS A Capstone Experience Thesis Presented by Jared Howenstine Completion Date: May 2006 Approved By: Professor M. Darby Dyar, Astronomy Professor Christopher Condit, Geology Professor Judith Young, Astronomy Abstract Title: Analysis of the Depth-Diameter Relationship of Martian Craters Author: Jared Howenstine, Astronomy Approved By: Judith Young, Astronomy Approved By: M. Darby Dyar, Astronomy Approved By: Christopher Condit, Geology CE Type: Departmental Honors Project Using a gridded version of maritan topography with the computer program Gridview, this project studied the depth-diameter relationship of martian impact craters. The work encompasses 361 profiles of impacts with diameters larger than 15 kilometers and is a continuation of work that was started at the Lunar and Planetary Institute in Houston, Texas under the guidance of Dr. Walter S. Keifer. Using the most ‘pristine,’ or deepest craters in the data a depth-diameter relationship was determined: d = 0.610D 0.327 , where d is the depth of the crater and D is the diameter of the crater, both in kilometers. This relationship can then be used to estimate the theoretical depth of any impact radius, and therefore can be used to estimate the pristine shape of the crater. With a depth-diameter ratio for a particular crater, the measured depth can then be compared to this theoretical value and an estimate of the amount of material within the crater, or fill, can then be calculated. The data includes 140 named impact craters, 3 basins, and 218 other impacts. The named data encompasses all named impact structures of greater than 100 kilometers in diameter.

  • New Chryse and the Provinces
    New Chryse and the Provinces The city of New Chryse is actually several connected cities. The Upper City is located on a break in the crater rim, looking down past a steep rock to the Lower City. Inside the da Vinci crater rim lies the Inner City, also known as the Old City – Red Era tunnels and cave shelters, as well as several nanocomposite towers and cupolas on Mona Lys Ridge looking down on the lower parts of the city. The Lower city lies in a valley sloping down to the Harbour City, which fills a crater 20 kilometres to the East. The Harbour City crater is connected to Camiling Bay and the sea through two canyons and is very well protected from both wind and ice. South of the Lower City and Harbour City lies The Slopes, a straight slope into the sea that is covered with sprawl and slums. Mona Lys Ridge is a mixture of palatial estates surrounded by gardens, imposing official imperial buildings and towering ancient structures used by the highest ranks of the Empire. The central imperial administration and especially the Council is housed in the Deimos Needle, a diamondoid tower that together with its sibling the Phobos Needle dominate the skyline. Escalators allow swift and discreet transport down to the lower levels of the city, and can easily be defended by the police force. North of Mona Lys lies a secluded garden city for higher administrators, guild officials and lesser nobility. The Inner City is to a large extent part of Mona Lys, although most of the inhabitants of Mona Lys do not care much for the dusty old tunnels and hidden vaults – that is left to the Guild of Antiquarians who maintain and protect it.

Tennessee, Knoxville, TN; 4Planetary Exploration Group, JHU Applied Physics Laboratory, Laurel, MD; 5Dept Earth and Planetary Sciences, John Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD; 6Dept Earth and Planetary Sci- ences, Washington University, St. Louis, Missouri. Introduction: A dark-toned marker bed is ob- pearance across the mound. Most of the sulfates served within the sulfates at Gale crater [1,2]. This above/below the marker bed are stratified, heavily marker bed is characterized by a dark-toned, smooth fractured, and erode into boulder-size blocks, but there surface that appears more indurated and retains more are examples where the sulfates appear massive with craters relative to the sulfate-bearing layers above and limited fracturing and no boulders eroding from the below it. The bed has a distinct physical appearance unit (Fig. 3a). from the sulfates in which it occurs, suggesting a change in the environment or geochemistry for a brief period of time within the depositional sequence that formed the sulfates or post-deposition alteration. In this study, we utilized HiRISE and CTX images to identify and map the occurrence of the marker bed throughout Aeolis Mons.

  • Pacing Early Mars Fluvial Activity at Aeolis Dorsa: Implications for Mars
    1 Pacing Early Mars fluvial activity at Aeolis Dorsa: Implications for Mars 2 Science Laboratory observations at Gale Crater and Aeolis Mons 3 4 Edwin S. Kitea ([email protected]), Antoine Lucasa, Caleb I. Fassettb 5 a Caltech, Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences, Pasadena, CA 91125 6 b Mount Holyoke College, Department of Astronomy, South Hadley, MA 01075 7 8 Abstract: The impactor flux early in Mars history was much higher than today, so sedimentary 9 sequences include many buried craters. In combination with models for the impactor flux, 10 observations of the number of buried craters can constrain sedimentation rates. Using the 11 frequency of crater-river interactions, we find net sedimentation rate ≲20-300 μm/yr at Aeolis 12 Dorsa. This sets a lower bound of 1-15 Myr on the total interval spanned by fluvial activity 13 around the Noachian-Hesperian transition. We predict that Gale Crater’s mound (Aeolis Mons) 14 took at least 10-100 Myr to accumulate, which is testable by the Mars Science Laboratory. 15 16 1. Introduction. 17 On Mars, many craters are embedded within sedimentary sequences, leading to the 18 recognition that the planet’s geological history is recorded in “cratered volumes”, rather than 19 just cratered surfaces (Edgett and Malin, 2002). For a given impact flux, the density of craters 20 interbedded within a geologic unit is inversely proportional to the deposition rate of that 21 geologic unit (Smith et al. 2008). To use embedded-crater statistics to constrain deposition 22 rate, it is necessary to distinguish the population of interbedded craters from a (usually much 23 more numerous) population of craters formed during and after exhumation.
