Nice animation Gordan. Would the evolution of the glint depicted here tell us mostly about the lake extent, or also about expansion of the glint by wave action (or lack thereof)?

The size is only telling you about the point-spread-function of the VIMS instrument, as it turns out -- not lake extent. The time evolution is telling you about the waves and whether the specular point is on land or liquid. My paper on this was just accepted, and I will post a version here as soon as it's up on the _Icarus_ website. What the heck, here it is. It will be up on _Icarus_ in press soon. - Jason |

Thanks for the paper, VIMS Jason. So, there's 14 speculars on T59 as well?
