Scientific paper

Geologic investigations point to a dynamic history for the evolution of the Tharsis rise, including major stages of activity, which includes distinct flow sequences. Furthermore, such putative stages of activity have been proposed to contribute significantly to transient environmental change, including major volatile release, flooding, ponding in the northern plains to form large bodies of water, and climatic perturbations. Our primary objective is to investigate these possible stages through delineating and crater counting individual lava flows within a candidate flow sequence and comparing their crater-retention ages with flows of an adjacent candidate flow sequence. We report preliminary findings of our first target, the southeastern flank of shield complex of Syria Planum, including parts of Sinai and Solis Plana.
