Spatial and Temporal Distribution of Lobate Scarps in the Lunar South Polar Region: Evidence for Latitudinal Variation of Scarp Geometry, Kinematics and Formation Ages, Neo‐Tectonic Activity and Sources of Potential Seismic Risks at the Artemis Candidate Landing Regions

Abstract Lobate scarps (thrust faults) in the lunar south polar region (90°–60°S) provide important insights into tectonic history, seismicity, and seismic hazard potential of landing sites. In this study, we discovered 75 new lobate scarps and >500 segments, exhibiting latitudinal variation of g...
