Abstract
⺠We correlate source locations of jets with surface features, such as pits and scarps. ⺠We build a numerical model of jet initiation from material slumping into a vent. ⺠Initial geometric conditions affect the expression of jet activity. ⺠Observations and model results indicate a role for surface geology in jet formation. ⺠Ongoing jet activity can produce knobby/spired terrain at Hartley 2.
