One of the pre-MOLA hot topics was the supposed discovery of ancient Martiian shoreline features of various forms in, for example, Viking images. Now we have accurate height measurements, high quality MGS images, MOLA, and THEMIS data, and the whole subject has gone rather quiet, despite MEX images which are allegedly of glaciation and the remnants of ice floes.

I drove today from Glasgow to Gourock and back, and saw a 20 mile long raised beach; where are the Martian raised beaches?
