Gravity aspects suggest that Isidis basin is buried volcano

Abstract

We use the gravity aspects (descriptors) to study features on Mars. They are derived from the gravity field models of Mars (sets of spherical harmonic expansion of disturbing gravitational potential in terms of harmonic coefficients, also known as Stokes parameters).

Gravity aspects revealed significant local observation near large basins and volcanoes of Mars.
