Ares Vallis, Craters: Counting, Mars, Mars: Glaciation, Resurfacing

Scientific paper

Ares Vallis emerges close to the equator at 18 degrees W and is the easternmost channel of a complex affecting the southern rim of the Chryse Basin. At its mouth are rich arrays of sculptured landforms and remnants of the plateau in which the channel was incised. Our crater count and sedimentological studies of the channel indicate that until 3.5Ga ago it may have formed by glacially-related processes, with some fluvial activity, and that at more northerly locations, localized volcanic resurfacing followed until 1.6 Ga ago.
