Scientific paper

Here, we show crater-wall gullies in Utopia Planitia, point to landforms
suggesting that near-surface ground-ice extends tens of metres to depth
in the UP landscape and argue that gully formation could be related to
the melting of this near-surface ground-ice during periods of high
obliquity.
