Inverted Channels, North of Juventae Chasma (extra-detail mgnf)
The raised ridges in this image have been explained as former stream channels that are now preserved in inverted relief. 
On Earth, inverted relief occurs when former depressions become elevated because materials that fill the depressions are more resistant to erosion than the surrounding terrain. 
For example: a depression may become filled with lava that is more resistant to erosion than the surrounding surface; gravel or boulders transported in a high energy flow protect underlying material from erosion, or sediments deposited by a flowing stream become cemented.
