Fig. 8: Surface textures within bright Vinalia Faculae deposits.

Bright arrows in a indicate narrow ribbon-like deposits filling local depressions or crossing ridges within Vinalia Faculae bright center c in Fig. 6b (see also Supplementary Fig. 16 for stereo images) and narrow sinuous trough and pits in b that were active after bright deposits were emplaced within bright center g in Fig. 6b). Dark arrows highlight some of the largest of the many small craters on the surface of the bright carbonates. Areas are enlarged from Fig. 6b, without color coding.
