Abstract
A study of the valley topography of the northeastern part of Terra Cimmeria on Mars was carried out. The results of the study allow us to draw the following conclusions. (1) The morphology of the studied valley systems corresponds to their presumed fluvial origin. (2) The remains of the paleodelta in the Gusev crater, fragments of terrace levels traced along the valley, regular changes in their height, as well as the remains of eroded accumulative bodies discovered in the Ma’adim Valley indicate the existence of individual episodes of partial filling of the valleys with sediment, probably due to the activation of the uppermost links of the valley system that supplied fragmentary material to the main valley. A detailed study of the morphology and topography of the Durius Valley suggests the same mechanism of its formation.
期刊介绍：
Solar System Research publishes articles concerning the bodies of the Solar System, i.e., planets and their satellites, asteroids, comets, meteoric substances, and cosmic dust. The articles consider physics, dynamics and composition of these bodies, and techniques of their exploration. The journal addresses the problems of comparative planetology, physics of the planetary atmospheres and interiors, cosmochemistry, as well as planetary plasma environment and heliosphere, specifically those related to solar-planetary interactions. Attention is paid to studies of exoplanets and complex problems of the origin and evolution of planetary systems including the solar system, based on the results of astronomical observations, laboratory studies of meteorites, relevant theoretical approaches and mathematical modeling. Alongside with the original results of experimental and theoretical studies, the journal publishes scientific reviews in the field of planetary exploration, and notes on observational results.
