Modeling Bright Gully Deposits' Formation in Hale Crater, Mars: Implications for Recent Liquid Water

This study aims at uncovering the formation mechanism of the recent bright gully deposits observed on Mars in order to assess the viability of liquid water involvement. I use a high resolution topography model as input into a kinematic model to assess whether or not a dry granular flow could form t...
