South Polar Residual Cap Margin

South Polar Residual Cap Margin

At the Margins
This observation is based on coverage over existing high-resolution CRISM data that shows a sliver of residual carbon dioxide ice and its margins. This area would benefit from repeat observation to better understand surface changes and observe seasonal frost cover at a similar state as the corresponding CRISM data.
