A chronology of early Mars climatic evolution from impact crater degradation (2012, background): “4 of 22 identified by their cone-like shape, their direct association with valleys and/or the presence of inverted channels (IC in Figure 3d) that are characteristic of this landform [Moore and Howard, 2005].”
Mars Science Laboratory Mission and Science Investigation (2012, background): “…depressions—craters and structural troughs—filled with alluvial fans and deltas that contain hydrated phyllosilicates (Malin and Edgett 2003; Moore and Howard 2005; Ehlmann et al. 2008); and the revelation that Mars has a rich and varied history characterized by a rock cycle involving…”
Selection of the Mars Science Laboratory Landing Site (2012, background): “The ellipse in Holden crater is located on a broad alluvial bajada flanking portions of the wall (Moore and Howard 2005; Pondrelli et al. 2005), whereas the ellipse in Eberswalde crater lies on the crater floor.”
