Sinuous Ridges near Juventae Chasma
A previous image taken in 2007 shows very finely branched channels running west to east. Here, inverted channels crosscut negative-relief channels, and the stratigraphic relations are complex. A stereo pair will help to unscramble the relationship to local topography, determine influence of present-day tilt, and to identify slope-area relations and drainage divides.
