The Memnonia quadrangle lies astride the boundary between heavily cratered and sparsely cratered hemispheres of Mars (Carr and others, 1973). Densely cratered terrain occurs in the southwestern part of the quadrangle. Strips of plains material bound the cratered terrain in both the northern and eastern parts of the quadrangle. There is approximately 3 km of relief across the quadrangle, with th

Most of the Cebrenia quadrangle (lat 30 degrees to 65 degrees N., long 180 degrees to 240 degrees W.) is in the circumpolar plains of Mars. Craters from an early episode of intense bombardment have been largely obliterated by later volcanism, tectonism, erosion and sedimentation by wind and water, and by circumpolar glacial and periglacial processes. South of 47 degrees N. the plains are dissected

The Margaritifer Sinus quadrangle lies within a broad north-sloping trough, the Chryse lowland, between the elevated Tharsis plateau to the west and the cratered upland to the east. The rugged, uniquely martian chaotic terrain is best developed in this quadrangle. Sinuous furrows a few kilometers wide and as much as several hundred kilometers long cover most of the quadrangle; in several places ar

The Phaethontis quadrangle of Mars is dominated by densely cratered uplands and plateaus which form some of the oldest surfaces on the planet. Extensive low-lying areas within the cratered terrains, including the floors of large craters, are covered to different degrees by plains-forming material. The youngest plains units surround Tharsis Montes to the north. Various erosional processes, includin

The Arcadia quadrangle of Mars contains three distinct geologic provinces: (1) the 1000-km-diameter shield volcano of Alba Patera, which occupies the southwestern quadrant; (2) the complex Tempe province, which comprises a number of younger volcanic and sedimentary blanket deposits over an ancient, highly cratered crust forming a plateau in the southeastern quadrant; and (3) a plains province, con

The geology of the Argyre quadrangle of Mars is dominated by the conspicuous Argyre basin, defined by a rim of rugged mountain blocks that surrounds a nearly circular expanse of plains 800 km across. Of the large (greater than 500 km in diameter) basins identified on Mars, Argyre is the best preserved and probably the youngest. Basins appear to be traps for eolian debris and evidently are source a

The Sinus Sabaeus quadrangle lies in the southern equatorial region of Mars. It is bounded on the north by the equator, on the west by the central meridian, on the south by lat 30 degrees S., and on the east by long 315 degrees W. Three classical regions that have low albedos occur within the quadrangle (Lowell Observatory, 1971): (1) half of Sinus Meridiani occupies part of the northwest corner o

The Systematic mapping of lava flow units in the Tharsis region has been compiled into a series of 16 maps at 1:2,000,000 scale. This work provides information on the sources and areal extent of the lava flows, on their eruptive sequences and relative ages, and on relations between the flows and geologic structure in the largest, most active tectonic and volcanic province on Mars. Some of the maps
