The lake stages in Jezero are consistent with semiarid climates The Jezero lake was a throughflow lake driven by significant surface runoff Hydrological conditions do not favor large-scale evaporite deposition Similar climates at Jezero and Gale produce contrasting lacustrine environments

Periodic Bedrock Ridges (PBRs) are repeating, symmetrical, wind-transverse, bedrock-abraded linear ridges that occur on Mars as parallel sets. Here, we extend our previous survey of PBRs at Oxia Planum - the landing site of ESA's ExoMars Rosalind Franklin rover - to include three additional sites along the margins of the circum-Chryse basin to und…
