Our study is intended to (i) characterize the basaltic sands petrologically, (ii) to determine if the dune sands originate from the stripping of Keanakako'i tephra or from local reworked tephra emplaced by larger phreatomagmatic eruptions, (iii) to determine the material's transport mechanisms (i.e., fluvial and/or aeolian), and (iv) to assess the implications for the potential sediment sources of Martian basaltic dunes.
