Constraining the Ice-Content and Timing of Deposition of Ice-Rich Deposits in Utopia Planitia: SHARAD, Stratigraphy and Crater Counting
Abstract
Our stratigraphic analysis, crater counting and SHARAD detections highlight an ice-rich deposit in the mid-latitudes of Utopia Planitia. The deposit is of 80 m in thickness containing excess-ice ( 50-85% by volume) and of about 11 Ma age.
