Slope Monitoring in Layered Rocks

Slope Monitoring in Layered Rocks

Slope Monitoring in Layered Rocks
This deposit of sedimentary rocks has excellent examples of recurring slope lineae (RSL). This proposed region of interest was last imaged after the 2006 dust storm and shows numerous large RSL all over the steep slopes. Once this excellent candidate RSL site is confirmed, additional images can be acquired on the neighboring candidate RSL site to the east.
