[1] Narrow-angle images from the Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) have revealed the common occurrence of small-scale (<100 m wavelength) bright transverse aeolian ridges (TARs) on the surface of Mars. MOC images were used to assess the broad distribution of TARs from 90 N to 90 S between 180 E and 240 E to investigate their relationship to latitude, elevation, thermal inertia, geologic units, local sl...
