| Description | Asymmetrical crater shadings and diffuse light and dark streaks visible on the photography returned by the 1969 Mars flyby of Mariners 6 and 7 are probably eolian in origin. Wind directions inferred from mapping of these features parallel motions of observed global dust storms or relate to expected patterns of topographic funneling of winds. |
