Abstract Observations by the Visual Infrared Spectrometer instrument (VIMS) aboard the Cassini mission have indicated the possible presence of CO2 ice on the surface on Titan, in areas which exhibit high reflectance in specific spectral windows (McCord et al., 2008). Two of the bright spots of significance are located within the Xanadu region – Tui Regio (located at 20°S, 130°W) and Hotei Regio (located at 26°S, 78°W), and there is a further spot situated in proximity to Omacatl Macula (Hayne et al., 2008).
