Searching for Dust Devil Tracks

Searching for Dust Devil Tracks
Our goal is to find dust devil tracks to monitor rate of fading. In the past, dust devil tracks were imaged here but this area lacks a nice time-series. Lifetimes of dust devil tracks have been broadly estimated in several cases based on their disappearance in successive images to be on the order of weeks to months on Mars as well as the Earth.
