Scientific paper

The Mangala Valles channel system differs from other Mars outflow channels as they emanate from a point source determined by the local interplay of tectonism, volcanism, and volatiles that led directly to the release of groundwater. Water discharge rates through the southern reaches of Mangala Valles may have been substantially lower than estimates determined fron the canyon system as a whole, suggesting that the accumulation and release of water may have lasted longer than previously envisioned. The sequence of events determined from mapping of units along the southern reaches of Mangala Valles is closely related to the area structures.
