On the minimum age of Titan's lacustrine depressions
Abstract
Titan's surface is dotted with hundreds of lacustrine depressions of yet unknown origin. Here we investigate the possibility that they actually originate from the dissolution of a solid surface layer in Titan's liquids (here methane). Using this hypothesis we try to determine a minimum age for Titan's lacustrine depressions.
