“…These landforms generally form by the removal and/or displacement of some volume of materials. For Mars, these include (1) numerous pristine and degraded impact craters (Craddock et al, 1997;Bleacher et al, 2003;Garvin et al, 2003;, (2) craters produced by primary phreatic and phreatomagmatic explosions (Morris and Mouginis-Mark, 2006;Fagents and Thordarson, 2007;Jaeger et al, 2007;Burr et al, 2009), (3) cratered cone groups and thermokarst terrains produced by interactions between lava flows and nearsurface water and/or ice (Keszthelyi et al, 2008;Burr et al, 2009;Hamilton et al, 2010cHamilton et al, , 2011, (4) devolatilization of pyroclastic density currents (Ghent et al, 2012), (5) collapse pits associated with tectonic structures or drainage of lava lakes/tubes (i.e., pit craters; Okubo and Martel, 1998;Wyrick and Ferrill, 2004;Rowland et al, 2011), (6) mud volcanism (Burr et al, 2009;Skinner and Tanaka, 2007), (7) various ablation and/or sublimation features related to ice-rich terrains, ice-cored mounds, or ice blocks (Lucchitta, 1981;Mustard et al, 2001;Pierce and Crown, 2003;Soare et al, 2007Soare et al, , 2008Kadish et al, 2008;Searls et al, 2008;Burr et al, 2009;Hartmann et al, 2010), and (8) some complex aeolian structures, such as ergs that can develop negative relief features between a high-standing network of star dunes (Edgett and Blumberg, 1994;Bridges et al, 2007;Bourke et al, 2010). Pits or pit-like features formed in each these settings have distinctive morphologic and geologic characteristics and are often confined to a specific geologic setting, such as a volcanic province.…”
