Gullies on terrestrial sand dunes are rare, and their presence on Mars, as well as their mechanical properties, and the quantity of fluid required for their formations currently remain poorly understood. This study focuses on gully morphologies on the Russell megadune (54.5°S; 12.7°E) using High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) images and Digital Terrain Models (DTM).

Abstract

Gullies on terrestrial sand dunes are rare, and their presence on Mars, as well as their mechanical properties, and the quantity of fluid required for their formations currently remain poorly understood. This study focuses on gully morphologies on the Russell megadune (54.5°S; 12.7°E) using High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) images and Digital Terrain Models (DTM).
