• North polar cap of Mars: Polar layered deposit characterization and identification of a fundamental climate signal (2005, unknown): “The trough geometry and orientation could affect insolation intensity [Hecht, 2002] or katabatic wind flow, which in turn would affect erosion of material through sublimation and erosion [e.g., Howard, 2000].”
• The Polar Deposits of Mars (2009, background): “In one, sub-PLD melting (likely from volcanic heating) and catastrophic outflow of meltwater carves the canyon (Clifford 1987), and in the other, downslope funneling of katabatic winds, coupled with ablation of steep surfaces, enlarges some small seedfeature (Howard 2000).”
