Cerberus Fossae Ripple Changes

Cerberus Fossae Ripple Changes

Ripple Changes in Cerberus Fossae
Our science goal with this observation is to test suggestions of very recent volcanism, and to monitor for surface changes. Are albedo (reflectivity) patterns explained by wind processes rather than recent pyroclastics? Cerberus Fossae are a series of semi-parallel fissures on Mars formed by faults.
