Scientific paper

Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) images acquired by the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) since 1997 show that the layered outcrops and general geomorphic character of the two martian polar regions are radically different. These differences occur at scales of hundreds to thousands of meters, and are likely to indicate differences in depositional, erosional, and climate history between the two poles over long periods of time (perhaps millions of years). Additional information can be found in the original extended abstract.
