The Memnonia quadrangle lies astride the boundary between heavily cratered and sparsely cratered hemispheres of Mars (Carr and others, 1973). Densely cratered terrain occurs in the southwestern part of the quadrangle. Strips of plains material bound the cratered terrain in both the northern and eastern parts of the quadrangle. There is approximately 3 km of relief across the quadrangle...

The Margaritifer Sinus quadrangle lies within a broad north-sloping trough, the Chryse lowland, between the elevated Tharsis plateau to the west and the cratered upland to the east. The rugged, uniquely martian chaotic terrain is best developed in this quadrangle. Sinuous furrows a few kilometers wide and as much as several hundred kilometers long cover most of the quadrangle; in several...

The Phaethontis quadrangle of Mars is dominated by densely cratered uplands and plateaus which form some of the oldest surfaces on the planet. Extensive low-lying areas within the cratered terrains, including the floors of large craters, are covered to different degrees by plains-forming material. The youngest plains units surround Tharsis Montes to the north. Various erosional processes

The Arcadia quadrangle of Mars contains three distinct geologic provinces: (1) the 1000-km-diameter shield volcano of Alba Patera, which occupies the southwestern quadrant; (2) the complex Tempe province, which comprises a number of younger volcanic and sedimentary blanket deposits over an ancient, highly cratered crust forming a plateau in the southeastern quadrant; and (3) a plains...

The Sinus Sabaeus quadrangle lies in the southern equatorial region of Mars. It is bounded on the north by the equator, on the west by the central meridian, on the south by lat 30 degrees S., and on the east by long 315 degrees W. Three classical regions that have low albedos occur within the quadrangle (Lowell Observatory, 1971): (1) half of Sinus Meridiani occupies part of the...

The Systematic mapping of lava flow units in the Tharsis region has been compiled into a series of 16 maps at 1:2,000,000 scale. This work provides information on the sources and areal extent of the lava flows, on their eruptive sequences and relative ages, and on relations between the flows and geologic structure in the largest, most active tectonic and volcanic province on Mars. Some...

The Mare Boreum geologic map portrays the north polar are of Mars above lat 65 degrees N. The area contains five physiographic provinces: (1) a residual ice cap characterized by troughs with a counterclockwise outward spiral pattern (Mariner 9 frames DAS 13317550 and DAS 13353320); (2) layered terrain adjacent to the ice cap, exposed within the spiral troughs; (3) a circumpolar band of...
