SHARAD detection and characterization of subsurface water ice deposits in Utopia Planitia, Mars (2016, background): “Additionally, the latitude-dependent mantle (LDM) is thought to be composed of water ice and dust deposited atmospherically during a high-obliquity period on the order of hundreds of thousands of years ago [Kreslavsky and Head, 2002].”
Transverse Aeolian Ridges (TARs) on Mars (2008, background): “This mantle, almost pervasive at N60° latitudes in both hemispheres but transitioning to a dissected, discontinuous mantle at 30–60° latitude (Mustard et al., 2001; Kreslavsky and Head, 2002; Head et al., 2003) is partly responsible for topographic smoothing at subkilometer scale at latitudes N30° i”
Thermal contraction crack polygons on Mars: Classification, distribution, and climate implications from HiRISE observations (2009, background): “[54] Polygons interpreted to be thermal contraction crack features are present in continuous and dissected mantle units that blanket underlying topography [e.g., Mustard et al., 2001; Kreslavsky and Head, 2002; Head et al., 2003].”
Recent formation and evolution of northern Martian polar layered deposits as inferred from a Global Climate Model (2007, background): “local topography, which would lead to somewhat different sequences like, for example, the work of Kreslavsky and Head [2006].”
The Polar Deposits of Mars (2009, background): “…flow features (Milliken et al. 2003), lobate debris aprons (Pierce & Crown 2003), a dissected mantle deposit (Mustard et al. 2001), latitude-dependent topographic statistics (Kreslavsky & Head 2000, 2002), and recently formed gullies (Malin & Edgett 2000, Milliken et al. 2003) in 548 Byrne A nn u.”
Viscous flow features on the surface of Mars: Observations from high‐resolution Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) images (2003, background): “Conversely, the high latitudes in the southern hemisphere are rough on a subkilometer scale relative to their northern counterparts [Kreslavsky and Head, 2002], but VFF are still not observed.”
Amazonian northern mid-latitude glaciation on Mars: A proposed climate scenario (2009, background): “…atmospheric mechanisms were available and operating to deposit significant amounts of ice in widespread regions of Mars, from the latitude-dependent mantle covering at least 23% of the planet (Kreslavsky and Head, 2002) to the regional mid-latitude valley and tropical mountain glaciers.”
