Elivagar Flumina
Elivagar Flumina is a network of river channels in the region around the Menrva Crater of Titan.[1] Its channels range from being 23 km to 210 km long.[2] The channel system is at least 120 km wide, and it shows signs of erosion.[3] Elivagar Flumina was most likely formed by hydrocarbon flash floods.[1]
