Key traits of the Low Elevation and High Albedo Features, LEHAF (a–d). Key characteristics are: relatively high albedo, higher surface roughness, oval to round basal shape, pitted summits with circumferential troughs (or ring-like features) and perimeter moats and swellings. (e) THEMIS Nighttime IR image where the chains of LEHAF, also shown in Fig. 1, are visible as dark patches, recognizable because of their distinctive spatial organization.
