The lakes and seas of Titan

AG Hayes - Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 2016 - annualreviews.org
Analogous to Earth's water cycle, Titan's methane-based hydrologic cycle supports standing
bodies of liquid and drives processes that result in common morphologic features including …

Potential caves: Inventory of subsurface access points on the surface of Titan

MJ Malaska, A Schoenfeld, JJ Wynne… - Journal of …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
We propose that cycling hydrocarbon rains on Saturn's moon Titan are likely to create
subsurface conduits through dissolution geology of the extensive organic and largely …

Spectral and emissivity analysis of the raised ramparts around Titan's northern lakes

A Solomonidou, A Le Gall, MJ Malaska, SPD Birch… - Icarus, 2020 - Elsevier
Some of Titan's small northern hemisphere lakes show raised rampart features (which are
distinct from raised rims), and appear as SAR-bright mound-like annuli extending away from …

Exploring Titan's subsurface: Insights from Cassini RADAR and prospects for future investigations

P He, C Ding - New Astronomy Reviews, 2024 - Elsevier
Abstract Although the Ku-band Cassini RADAR was not primarily designed to probe Titan's
