Fluvial channels on Titan: Initial Cassini RADAR observations

Cassini radar images show a variety of fluvial channels on Titan’s surface, often several hundreds of kilometers in length. Some (predominantly at lowand mid-latitude) are radar-bright and braided, resembling desert washes where fines have been removed by energetic surface liquid flow, presumably from methane rainstorms. Others (predominantly at high latitudes) are radar-dark and meandering and...

Author's personal copy Geomorphologic mapping of the Menrva region of Titan using Cassini RADAR data

We made a detailed geomorphologic map of the Menrva region of Titan, using Cassini RADAR data as our map base. Using similar techniques and approaches that were applied to mapping Magellan radar images of Venus, and earlier, more generalized Titan maps, we were able to define and characterize 10 radar morphologic units, along with inferred dunes and fluvial channels, from the RADAR data. Struct...
