Channelized Lava Flows with Density Changes During EmplacementWe explore the effects on emplacement of large basaltic lava flows due to (1) changes in viscosity, (2) formation of channels/levees, and (3) loss of volatiles that cause a change in lava density. These may explain why flows on Mars are not as thick as expected. Additional information is contained in the original extended abstract.
