Abstract

Lobate scarps are structural reliefs described on terrestrial planetary surfaces, which formation is related to the displacement of underlying large thrust faults. The study of these reliefs on Mars and the structural analysis of the associated thrust faults allow to improve the knowledge of the lithospheric structure, because the depth of these large thrust faults has been related to the depth of the brittle-ductile transition at the time of formation. Besides, the study of the regional contraction registered on these structures provides information about the causing deformation and the role of these faults in the tectonic pattern of Mars...
