Cerberus Fossae
The Cerberus Fossae are a series of semi-parallel fissures on Mars formed by faults which pulled the crust apart in the Cerberus region. They are 1235 km across and centered at 11.28 °N and 166.37 °W. Their northernmost latitude is 16.16 °N and their southernmost latitude 6.23 °N. Their easternmost and westernmost longitudes are 174.72 °E and 154.43 °E, respectively. They can be seen in the Elysium quadrangle . [1]

Their easternmost and westernmost longitudes are 174.72 °E and 154.43 °E, respectively. [1] Ripples seen at the bottom of the faults are sand blown by the wind. [2] The underlying cause for the faulting was magma pressure related to the formation of the Elysium volcanic field, located to the northwest. The faults pass through pre-existing features such as hills, indicating that it is a younger feature. [3] The formation of the fossae is suspected to have released pressurized underground water, previously confined by the cryosphere , with flow rates up to 2 × 10 6 m 3 s −1 , leading to the creation of the Athabasca Valles . [4] [5] [6] Marte Vallis is another channel that was formed from water released from Cerberus Fossae. [7] |
