“…It occurs in the vicinity of two craters, Roddenberry (diameter 139 km) and Green (182 km). These two craters, as well as the nearby Maunder (91 km, to the east of Roddenberry) show distinct lava flows (Leone, ). Their spatial extent and detailed characteristics remain to be studied, possibly in relation to their magnetic field anomalies.…”

“…The direct observation of lava flows through high resolution CTX and HiRISE imagery, combined with a global geomorphological and mineralogical analysis of the surface of Mars, was fundamental to understand the volcanic origin of Valles Marineris, of several other circum-Chryse outflow channels, and of all the valley networks once thought to be fluvial networks (Leverington, 2004(Leverington, , 2007(Leverington, , 2009(Leverington, , 2011Leone, 2014Leone, , 2016. The same approach will be used here to better understand the origin of Mangala Valles.…”

“…Nothing different than something already observed at Gusev (McSween, Wyatt, et al, 2006; McSween, Ruff, 2006), Palos (Leverington, 2006), or elsewhere on Mars (Leone, 2016). After the initial post‐Mariner (Leighton et al, 1965) and post‐Viking views (Baird & Clark, 1984), there is now a growing literature that shows compelling evidence of lava as the main fluid carving the outflow channels and the fluvial networks (Hopper & Leverington, 2014; Leone, 2014, 2016, 2017, 2019; Leverington, 2004, 2007, 2009, 2011; Leverington & Maxwell, 2004). Such evidence is also supported by the scarcity of the sources that should have provided the amounts of water necessary to fill the lowlands with enough water to form an ocean.…”

“…Thus, basaltic tephra deposits would be difficult to distinguish from eventual water molecules annealed in the cage of frozen CO 2 forming the polar caps. The midlatitude regions selected for the experiments of radar sounding were the Mamers Valles (23°E–39°N and 28°E–40°N) and Reull Vallis (103°E–41°S and 105°E–43°S) (Karlsson et al, 2015), both located in volcanic terrains covered by an eolian blanket of volcanic ashes transported by the wind and characterized by porosity comparable to that of tephra that may vary from a few centimeters to hundreds of meters of thickness depending on the topography (Leone, 2016). Both regions have much lower WEH than the polar regions (Christensen, 2006).…”
