“The Dotted Dunes of Mars” is copyrighted by Malin Space Science Systems, MOC, MGS, JPL, NASA. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteAs spring arrived in Mars's Northern Hemisphere in 2004, dark spots appeared on the defrosted dunes. Thinner ice regions thaw first, revealing the darker sand beneath, which then absorbs more sunlight, accelerating the melt. This process might involve sandy jets exploding through the thinning ice. By summer, the dunes were completely thawed and dark.
