Studies continue to find evidence that Mars was once wet, from the chemical composition of its dirt to valleys seemingly cut by ancient rivers. But how much water and what effects the it had are still matters of discussion. The researchers behind the new study have discovered evidence of fluctuating groundwater levels in craters across the entire Red Planet. These deep basins groundwater-fed lakes will be of interest to future exploration missions as they might provide evidence of geological conditions suitable for life, according to the paper published today in the Journal of Geophysical Research-Planets.

Several lines of evidence appeared in the analysis. Some of the craters had valleys that appeared to be formed by erosion from water. Some had channels carved into their walls. Some had terraces, platforms that could have been formed by the presence of standing water. Fifteen of the craters had fan shapes that looked like river deltas. Some had cones that looked like branching tributaries. Their floors were flat, possibly fr
