Abstract

The ESA ExoMars mission will land at Oxia Planum to search for signs of life on Mars [1, 2] (Fig. 1a). Aeolian processes play a significant role in shaping the landing surface, evidenced by documented features like dust devil tracks, bright bedforms (transverse aeolian ridges [TARs]), and erosive wind-formed ridges (periodic bedrock ridges [PBRs]) [3-6]. However, little attention has been paid to wind streaks, which are abundant in the landing site and provide valuable insights into recent climatic conditions. These features are the focus of our attention.
