Field Observations of Rootless Vents over the Pōhue Bay Lava Tube, Hawai'i: Comparisons with Olympus Mons Lava Fans, Mars
Abstract
Field studies of rootless vents over lava tubes on Hawai’i suggest that most Olympus Mons lava fans are also rootless eruption points. Rift zones, if present, are likely responsible for a smaller population of flank fans.
