• High latitude patterned grounds on Mars: Classification, distribution and climatic control (2005, background): “On these two images, stripes are periodic and of constant width therefore being very different from any mass wasting features such as dark slope streaks that cover some of the equatorial regions (Sullivan et al., 2001).”
• Transverse Aeolian Ridges (TARs) on Mars (2008, background): “Slope streaks, however, are mass wasting landforms that are also actively forming on Mars today (Sullivan et al., 2001) and persist for up to tens of years (Aharonson et al.”
• Context Camera Investigation on board the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (2007, background): “: MRO CONTEXT CAMERA 9 of 25 E05S04 simply the product of dry avalanching of the dust [Sullivan et al., 2001].”
• An overview of the 1985-2006 Mars Orbiter Camera science investigation (2010, background): “MOC results from the Primary Mission were summarized by Malin and Edgett (2001), Caplinger and Malin (2001), Carr (2001), Cantor et al. (2001), Sullivan et al. (2001), James et al. (2001) and James and Cantor (2002).”
• Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter's High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) (2007, background): “[143] Dark slope streaks have been observed to be currently forming on Mars [Malin and Edgett, 2001; Sullivan et al., 2001].”
• Mars Global Surveyor Mars Orbiter Camera: Interplanetary cruise through primary mission (2001, background): “They usually begin at a point high on a mantled slope [Sullivan et al., 2001].”
• Ripple migration and dune activity on Mars: Evidence for dynamic wind processes (2010, background): “These features are different from the flow structures observed by other authors on the slopes of the dark dunes [Gardin et al., 2010; Reiss et al., 2010] and from the dust slope streaks described in other region of Mars [Sullivan et al., 2001].”
• Geologic history of Mars (2010, background): “…accumulation of sufficient liquid to erode gullies is unlikely, and although newly formed bright deposits associated with gullied slopes have been attributed to liquid water (Malin et al., 2006), a plausible alternative is that these deposits are simply dust avalanches (Sullivan et al., 2001).”
• Bright and dark regions on Mars: Particle size and mineralogical characteristics based on thermal emission spectrometer data (2002, background): “New photogeological evidence for this view has been provided by the observation of dust avalanche scars in bright, low thermal inertia regions [Sullivan et al., 2001].”
• The High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) during MRO’s Primary Science Phase (PSP) (2010, background): “The PDS products will be replaced with new versions.”
