Formation of Lobate Debris Aprons on Mars: Assessment of regional ice sheet collapse and debris-cover armoring
Published: Jan 1, 2013 Author(s): Fastook, James L., Head, James W., Marchant, David R. Abstract: Lobate debris aprons (LDA) are lobate-shaped aprons surrounding scarps and isolated massifs that are concentrated in the vicinity of the northern Dichotomy Boundary on Mars.
