Scientific paper

Polygonally grooved terrain on the northern edge of Elysium lavas grades northward through subdued grooved terrain to knob and mesa terrain and continues to knobby plains. Features within the subdued grooved terrain provide clues to its origin. The transition represents a degradational sequence as erosional plains are formed at the expense of large, highstanding lava-capped blocks.
