The cause of such variation is unknown".

This image shows a small portion of the North Polar Sand Sea, an immense Region of sand dunes. The dunes are just starting to shed their Winter frost and will darken as Spring becomes Summer and the dark sand is revealed".MareKromiumGiu 20, 2008

Fienga - Lunexit Team)65 visiteCaption NASA:"Alba Patera is a very large old volcano on the surface of Mars. While still impressive in height, it no longer towers over the surrounding plains.
It is thought that after a major eruption that emptied the magma chamber beneath Alba Patera the entire volcano collapsed into the empty space below.
This collapse is marked by extensive fracturing. This VIS image shows collapse features on a much smaller scale".

Craters-Unnamed_and_Frozen_Crater-20080609a-PCF-LXTT.jpgShallow (and partially frozen) Unnamed Crater in Vastitas Borealis (Saturated Natural Colors; credits for the additional process. and color.: Dr Paolo C. Fienga - Lunexit Team)54 visiteCaption NASA:"Located at high Northern Latitude, the floor of this Unnamed Crater shows a typical surface texture - polygonal ground.
On Earth, this surface texture is found above permafrost and is believed to be caused by freeze/thaw cycle of water moving larger material upward".

Coord.: 66,4° North Lat. and 99,7° East Long.
