Lakes in the limelight, the 2013 image bonanza continues Options

I wonder if it means that methane could be entering from the north on a systematic basis. E.g., higher rainfall rates near the pole. -Of course, this is reading a lot into a little data.

Well, this is exactly the paradigm I suggested (based on even less data!) in my 2014 'Flushing of Ligeia' paper https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi...02/2014GL061133

The analogies I draw is with the Sea of Azov - Black Sea - Mediterranean gradient, with Azov much less salty than the Med. There's some backwash back and forth, causing mixing, but a net flow of freshwater from continental rainfall. Same story with the Baltic Sea and Atlantic.

An interesting paper postulating the shorelines of Titan’s seas are most consistent with flooded landscapes that subsequently have been eroded by waves, rather than a uniform erosional process or no coastal erosion. The paper is here https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adn4192
