Physics

Scientific paper

A preliminary study of the depth to diameter of craters in the northern
high latitudes of Mars suggests the presence of relatively ice-rich fine
grain sediment that mantles the northern plains. The most likely source
of this mantle is from standing water in an ocean from subsurface
sources.
